Factor structure, reliability, and validity of the Japanese version of the Disgust Scale-Revised (DS-R-J) Kazunori Iwasa （Shujitsu University） , Tsunehiko Tanaka （Niigata University） , and Yuki Yamada （Kyushu University）The purpose of this study was to develop the Japanese version of the Disgust Scale-Revised (DS-R-J). The participants were 1063 Japanese people (mean age = 21.64, SD = 7.33, range = 18-77; 581 males and 482 females) and were separated into three different groups. Participants in samples 1 (n = 481) and 2 (n = 492) provided data for examining the factor structure and validity of the DS-R-J. They completed the DS-R-J as well as questionnaires assessing disgust propensity and sensitivity, anxiety sensitivity, state and trait anxiety, affective state, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Participants in sample 3 (n = 90) provided data for estimating the test-retest reliability of the DS-R-J. The exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses confirmed the three-factor structure involving core disgust, animal-reminder disgust, and physical and mental contamination disgust. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were sufficient, and conceptual validity of the DS-R-J was also supported. The results show that the Japanese version of the DS-R-J is a reliable and valid measurement of disgust sensitivity.

“…Since there are very few studies on disgust sensitivity in Polish population (e.g., Milkowska et al, 2019;Szewczuk-Bogusławska et al, 2015), we first aimed to establish whether the sex differences in various facets of disgust in this population concur with the previous literature. We recruited 315 heterosexual poles (aged 18-32, mean = 21.43, SD = 2.19; 50% women) and using the Three Domain Disgust Scale (Tybur et al, 2009), we confirmed that women scored higher (i.e., were more disgusted) in all the three disgust domains (see Figure S1): 1 Pathogen (t = −6.29, p < .001, d = −0.710; M women = 3.94, SD = 0.74, M men = 3.42, SD = 0.72), Sexual (t = −6.49, p < .001, d = −0.731; M women = 3.91, SD = 0.79, M men = 3.34, SD = 0.79), and Moral (t = −3.53, p < .001, d = −0.398; M women = 3.78, SD = 0.78, M men = 3.49, SD = 0.68).…”

Disgust sensitivity differs among men and women, and this phenomenon has been observed across numerous cultures. It remains unknown why such sex differences occur, but one of the reasons may relate to differences in self‐presentation. We tested that hypothesis in an experiment comprising 299 participants (49% women) randomly allocated into three groups. Each group completed the Three Domains Disgust Scale (TDDS) and rated how disgusting they found olfactory, visual, gustatory, and tactile disgust elicitors either when a male experimenter was present, a female experimenter was present, or no experimenter was present. We hypothesised that male participants in the female experimenter group would declare decreased levels of disgust sensitivity, and female participants in the male experimenter group would declare increased levels of disgust sensitivity. Results showed that despite sex differences in pathogen and sexual disgust, attractive experimenters did not evoke any differences in declared disgust across groups with one exception–both men and women self‐presented as more sensitive to sexual disgust in the presence of the female experimenter. We discuss our findings in the light of evolutionary and social theories.

“…Disgust is a basic emotion that evolved to serve a protective function. Sensitivity to disgust indicates a predisposition to react with disgust to various, potentially dangerous, stimuli [ 48 ]. An experiment in which participants evaluated photos of various frog species revealed that people with high levels of disgust sensitivity rated frogs as less beautiful and more disgusting [ 49 ].…”

The unexplored territory of aesthetic needs and the development of the Aesthetic Needs Scale

Human needs, and their fulfillment, are the building blocks of human development, personality, and well-being. However, no published paper in the field of psychology has focused on exploring aesthetic needs. Maslow (1986) gave the topic little more than a paragraph; and Dweck [1], in her elegant Unified Theory of Motivation, Personality, and Development, never mentions aesthetic needs. The aim of this article is to describe developing a scale for measuring the intensity of aesthetic needs. The structure, psychometric properties, and criterion-related validity of the scale were verified with three independent samples (total N = 592). The results of an EFA and two CFAs indicated a three-factor structure: 1) the need to aestheticize everyday life (aesthetic experiences of everyday objects and events unrelated to art, such as the presentation of food or the appearance of a workspace, etc.); 2) the need for contact with aesthetic creations (the arts); 3) the need to aestheticize the built and natural environments (urban spaces, architecture, parks, wild nature, etc.). In addition, our criterion-related convergent validity studies have shown that people with high aesthetic needs are characterized by experiencing more intense experiences in contact with works of art, have higher aesthetic competence in art, are more intensely involved in four forms of beauty, have a higher ability to integrate beauty, a stronger trait gratitude, curiosity about nature, greater sensitivity to disgust, and the need for internal and external stimulation. This scale may prove useful in research on individual differences and the psychology of aesthetics.
