What does this say about acceptable physical distance in your culture?
- Japanese dislike short distance (less than 60cm)
- Different by situation but normally 50CM - 60 CM is acceptable distance. Friends can speak at a shorter distance.

III Explanation of Breaking Down National Stereotypes Discussion
Give a Survey

Your group is responsible for asking 30 people the following question about the country of your guest:
What are the first three things you think of when you hear the country name "________"?
「国X」と聞いたらどのような事を思い浮かぶか、3つ挙げてください。
In addition to the above question, please ask the age and occupation of the person answering the question. Try not to ask the same people as other CLGs and also please do not ask any member of MMCE to answer the question. Lastly, please ask a Japanese citizen to answer the question.
Your CLG should download the Excel File on the blog and enter the data (The answers of the 30 respondents) in it.
o Do not worry about the "category" column.
o The data should be in English and Japanese, because some participants will not speak English and others will not speak Japanese.
o To do this efficiently, each member of your group can ask 5 - 7 people, and you can enter the data into the excel file together.
o Please e-mail JH the excel file by Monday, June 1, 5PM.
