The main objectives of this study were 1)to carry out a series of statistical sampling surveys on peoples' values and attitudes of the East Asian countries, 2)to analyze the "peoples' sense of trust" concerning the peaceful development of world economy and politics, and 3)to establish data-base of our cross-national comparative studies for the mutual understanding of peoples' social attitudes and values.For 1)and 2)above, we have published many research papers in the special issues of Behaviormetrika and Japanese Journal of Behaviormetrics among others. As for 3), we are preparing a home page for public access to our survey data sets on the computer network. Also we have donated our past survey data (7 countries survey) to ZA (Zentralarchiv) in Germany, so that the data is now open to public under their supervision.We are still continuing our efforts on the data analysis and data-archiving, extending our research beyond our survey team.
