Abstract(in English) In this study, we used questionnaire methods and video analysis to examine how the level of self-affirmation affects conflict resolution strategies in group discussions participated by five people. Our experimental results showed that those with a high level of self-affirmation tended to feel that their opinions were adopted in the discussions and were more satisfied with the results. On the other hand, those with a low level of self-affirmation tended to be unsatisfied with the discussion results, whether or not their opinions were adopted. The results also showed that those with greater social skills were more eager to join in conversations and tended to show more agreement, even when they were not fully satisfied with the conversations. In summary, the result suggested that a person's social skills were expressed as visual behaviors and resolution strategies, while self-affirmation did not necessarily express itself as readily recognizable forms.
