Exploring the Cognitive and Behavioral Risks and Maintenance Factors of Hikikomori: Protocol for an Ecological Momentary Assessment Study

This study will be the first to investigate currently proposed mechanisms underlying hikikomori, while also exploring the time-varying relationships between affect and social behavior. The results will provide initial evidence for factors that predict hikikomori symptoms, explore candidate mechanisms underlying hikikomori, and identify potential maintenance factors as targets for intervention.

Abstract

This study will be the first to investigate currently proposed mechanisms underlying hikikomori, while also exploring the time-varying relationships between affect and social behavior. The results will provide initial evidence for factors that predict hikikomori symptoms, explore candidate mechanisms underlying hikikomori, and identify potential maintenance factors as targets for intervention.
