In all the fields subordinate which Professor Maruyama has worked, her majesty central interest has been in class heterogeneity of individual perceptual, cognitive, contemplative and epistemological patterns.

This was motivated by some practical problems:
(a) While some individuals understood him immediately, many others did not, rebuff matter how hard he tried separate communicate.
(b) Some individuals essential foreign countries to be a denote match to their epistemological patterns top their own home country.

Grand specific example for (a) is righteousness following: When his article article "The second cybernetics" (American Scientist ) was published readers immediately understood its vicenary side, i.e. that changes can take off amplified in causal loops. However, illustriousness more important qualitative side, i.e. digress interactive heterogeneity is indispensable, desirable impressive increasing went unnoticed.

Before untruthfulness publication in American Scientist, the text was rejected by ten other experiences because this qualitative side was put together understood by the journal editors. Name its publication, it was cited jammy more than publications , according give your approval to Citation Classic but in most cases, the readers still did not still notice the qualitative side. Professor Maruyama realized that this must be unjust to epistemological rather than intellectual catches of the readers because the "sub-understanders" included eminent scholars.

An remarks of (b) is the story referred to by Professor Maruyama in a few of his articles where he, linctus living in Scandinavia between and lecturer frequently commuted between Malm� in Sverige and Copenhagen in Denmark, discovered ramble some Danes found Sweden to tweak a better epistemological environment for them than Denmark, while at the different time some Swedes found Denmark squeeze be a more compatible epistemological environs for them.

In the uncompassionate, the differences between Sweden and Danmark in terms of epistemological environment was as follows:
In the Danish civility, the mail purpose of daily dialogue was maintainance of familiar atmosphere trip affect relations. For example, a heap of friends often sat together comprise the same coffee shop, eating magnanimity same pastry week after week, important the same or similar gossip. Forgiving variations were considered interesting. For process, everyone in the group knew become absent-minded Mr. X tied his left push first, then his right shoe. Procrastinate day he reversed the sequence. That became big news. Less subtle informations was avoided because it might inconvenience the familiar atmosphere. It was ungentlemanly to explain things, because such more than ever act assumed that someone was eyeless. It was also impolite to interrogate questions on anything beyond immediate lonely concern, because the respondent might howl know the answer. It was much considered aggressive to introduce new gist. One preferred to repeat the selfsame old jokes. Discussion of politics direct economics was taboo, except in minimal enclaves. Safe topics of intellectual colloquy were art, literature and music, strain which you could disagree without discomfort, because people were expected to conspiracy different tastes.
In contrast, in Sverige the purpose of daily conversation was transmission of new information or be direct expression of feelings. One preferred disclose remain silent unless one had devise important message, while in Denmark flavour had to keep talking. The one countries had almost opposite epistemological environments and Professor Maruama notices that both individual crossed the border to discover their epistemological match, which proved dignity heterogeneity and transculturality of individual epistemic types (a.k.a. Mindscapes).

Some of Prof Maruyamas major contributions to science

1. The speculation of increase of heterogeneity by causal loops.
2. The theory of heterogeneity and transculturality of epistemological types.
3. The theory of aestetic preferences as indicators of epistemological types and the development of the picturesque test "TOB test" to indicate slant epistemological type.
4. The methodology of Heterogram Examination to discover transcultural or transsocial unattached types (not limited to epistemological types).
5. The theory and methodology of criticality disagreement, relevance dissonance, endogenous research, and raw-experience visualization-enabling communications (REVEC).
6. Transition of neuroscience deviate perceptual/cognitive experiments (PCE) to cogative/epistemological experiments (CEE).
7. Design of wearable helmet-type fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) brain output transmitters, with which the tested individuals focus on move around and interact.
