项目摘要

This research project translated the Test of Economic Literacy, 3rd edition (TEL3) into Japanese, and administered the test to determine the present status and problems of economic literacy among Japanese high school and university students. The TEL3 was originally developed and conducted by Walstad of Nebraska University and Rebeck of St.Cloud State University. We conducted the TEL3 on 2,631 Japanese senior high school students in the 10th-12th grades (16 high schools), and on 2,877 university students (29 universities). The major findings from the test results are that there are similarities in economic literacy among high school and university students, with 6.6 % higher scores by university students. The both group demonstrated little understanding in several fundamental economic concepts, such as scarcity or opportunity cost, and that they have a relatively good understanding of microeconomics but not of macroeconomics.The research counterparts from Asian-Pacific region such as China, South Korea, the Philippines and New Zealand conducted the same test as well as the United States and Japan. Based on the test result of each country, we had the International Conference on Economic Education in the Asian-Pacific region at Waseda University in August, 2004, and made international comparison on economic literacy among the students in these countries. The investigators and foreign counterparts of this project examined these results and discussed how economic education in the region might be improved. The discussion is summarized in the report shown below in the "references".The research project also made a Japanese version of "the Financial Fitness for Life Test" which was also developed by Walstad and Rebeck. The investigators conducted the test in Japan in 2004 and made a presentation about the result of the test in the Annual Conference of NCEE : National Council on Economic Education in Little Rock, Arkansas.

该研究项目将经济素养测试，第三版（Tel3）转化为日语，并管理了测试以确定日本高中和大学生中经济素养的现状和问题。 TEL3最初是由内布拉斯加州大学的沃尔斯塔德（Walstad）和圣克劳德州立大学（St.Cloud State University）的Rebeck开发和进行的。我们在10-12年级（16个高中）和2,877名大学生（29所大学）上对2,631名日本高中学生进行了TEL3。测试结果的主要发现是，高中和大学生的经济素养相似，大学生的分数提高了6.6％。两组在几种基本的经济概念（例如稀缺或机会成本）中表现出很少的了解，并且他们对微观经济学有相对良好的了解，而对宏观经济学的了解相对较好。来自中国，韩国，北韩，菲律宾和新西兰等亚洲太平洋地区的研究对应者进行了与美国和日本的同样的测试。根据每个国家的测试结果，我们于2004年8月在Waseda University的亚洲太平洋地区举行了国际经济教育会议，并在这些国家的学生中对经济素养进行了国际比较。该项目的调查人员和外国对应者检查了这些结果，并讨论了该地区的经济教育如何改善。讨论在以下“参考”中所示的报告中进行了总结。研究项目还制作了日本版本的“金融适应性生命测试”，这也由沃尔斯塔德和rebeck开发。调查人员于2004年在日本进行了测试，并介绍了NCEE年度会议的测试结果：阿肯色州小石城的全国经济教育委员会。
