Abstract(in English) If we see a picture of "Mountain" or "Highway", we could categorize it as "Natural" or "Man-Made". Even though there was an individual difference for the scene categorization, many researchers have considered it as experimental errors. However, the present research examined the relationship between scene categorization performance and genetic polymorphisms (CHRNA4). In a behavioral task, participants had to judge whether a presented picture was "Natural" or "Man-Made" as quickly and accurately as possible. The target gene (CHRNA4) was divided into CC/CT/TT. The results showed there was greater accuracy of Natural scene categorization as more T allele was consisted (TT/CT >CC). Therefore the present research suggested the individual difference of scene categorization could be affected by CHRNA4 gene.
