CULTURAL LINK ANALYSIS FOR COMPARATIVE SOCIAL RESEARCH: A NEW APPROACH FOR THE EXPLORATION OF STRUCTURE IN WAYS OF THINKING - Cross-national Analysis of General Social Attitudes

本研究是东京统计数学研究所与夏威夷大学马诺阿分校合作对檀香山居民进行的纵向调查的第四项。1971年的第一次抽样调查只包括日本血统的火奴鲁鲁选民，而最后三次调查包括火奴鲁鲁的所有登记选民。报告共分四章，以《导言》开头，以《结束语》结尾。第二章报告了1988年对所有样本受访者的调查的要点，第三章从比较的角度关注日裔美国人，即从1971年到1988年他们发生了怎样的变化，以及他们与非日裔美国同胞的比较。

The present study represents the fourth in a longitudinal survey of Honolulu residents by the Institute of Statistical Mathematics in Tokyo in cooperation with the University of Hawaii at Manoa. The first sample survey of 1971 included Honolulu voters of Japanese ancestry only, while the last three surveys included all registered voters in Honolulu. The report contains four chapters, beginning with "Introduction" and ending with"Concluding Remarks". The second chapter reports on highlights of the 1988 survey of all sample respondents while the third chapter focuses on Japanese Americans in a comparative perspective, i.e., how they have changed from 1971 to 1988 and how they compare with non-Japanese American compatriots.
