The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationships between apprehension about makeup-risk and the following personal dispositions : heterosexual anxiety, self-monitoring, and need for uniqueness. Female undergraduates (N=260) completed the Apprehension-about-Makeup-Risk Scale (Itagaki & Moroi, 2011), the Survey of Heterosexual Interactions (Moroi, 2002), the Revised Self-Monitoring Scale (Moroi, 1997), and the Need for Uniqueness Scale (Okamoto, 1985). To examine the relationships pattern among various scale scores, the structural equation model analyses (Amos 18.0) were executed. The good solution was found. Exhibitionism in putting on make-up was influenced by need for uniqueness. The relationship was mediated by heterosexual anxiety in natural setting. Make-up pattern in daily life influenced the relationships between apprehension about makeup-risk and personal dispositions. The problem in this study was discussed.原著論
