Kamise and Matsui
(1994)
Kamise and Matsui (1994) said “there exist core characteristics of each
blood type, and the entire contents are formed around them.” The
following is a concrete example given by Yamazaki and Sakamoto (1991),
and Matsui (1991).
Yamazaki and Sakamoto (1991), and
Matsui (1991)
Only a few ”famous traits” were real; the percentages of participants
who imagined type A traits and the actual answers did not seem to match
(Chart 1 and Table 1).
Percentages who said the image of a trait was type A (Yamazaki and
Sakamoto, 1991).
Actual differences from type A people from the averages of other blood
types (Matsui, 1991).
