This research aims to examine the relationship between Chinese students' causal attribution\
toward dissatisfaction of their association with Japanese students. I conducted a questionnaire\
survey of 80 Chinese students and completed a statistical analysis of the data obtained. As a\
result of the examination, 4 factors ‘familiarity’ , ‘collectivistic advancement’ ‘authenticity, \
and ‘openness, from Image of Japanese were found by factor analysis. The results suggested\
that Chinese students who attribute the cause to themselves and those who are relatively older\
are more likely to have familiarity image to Japanese, while th at Chinese students who attribute\
the cause to Japanese students are more likely to have authenti city image to Japanese.
