 note = {Departmental Bulletin Paper, This　paper　is　a　study　on "rumors　of　rats　in Thai　rice" in　Japan.　These　rumors　circulated　in　Japan　in　March, 1994. I have　published　two　papers　on　theories　of　modern　rumors.　This　paper　is　based　on　those　theories.　In　this
paper　I　discuss　the　conditions　and　socio-psychological　background　in　which　the　rumors　occurred,　what　the　functions  of　the　rumors　were　and　the　relation　between　the　rumors　and　the　modern　journalism　in　Japan.  I pointed　out　that　there　were　three　conditions (objective,　subjective　and　social)at　that　time　which　persuaded  the　people　that　the　rumors　were　fact.　There　rumors　were　urban　rumors,
 rumors　people　made　up　to　confirm　their
In-group,　and　to　develop　and　express　an　ideology.　Also　discussed　is　the　fact　that　the　rumors　were　cultivated　by sensationalism　in　the　mass　media., 滋賀大学教育学部紀要, 人文科学・社会科学・教育科学, 第45号, pp.37-46},
