项目摘要

(1) Japan : This analysis examines changes in net worth in the Japanese householods in the period of the 1990s called Lost Decade and analyzes changes in consumer behavior due to the shock of the Bubble burst. The value of net worth in 1994 was about 30 percent of that in 1989. This drastic decline affected household saving behavior. The stimulus toward consumption for all households became weaker because of the depreciation of (unrealized) wealth experienced by almost all households when the Bubble burst. Using the Chow test the present paper concludes that a cohort made by cross-section is different from a cohort produced by from time series-cross section micro-data sets in the 1990s.(2) US and Japan : In many countries a gap between macroeconomic and microeconomic statistics is observed. To explain the gap, the present analysis tests the misreporting hypothesis originally proposed by Deaton and Irish (1984). The data used for estimation involves ten clusters of consumer durables fro … More m the Consumer Expenditure Survey in the U.S. Misreporting takes place if a household purchased goods but did not report the amount (type 1 misreporting), or it purchased goods but reported the amount incorrectly (type 2 misreporting). The variance of the measurement error in type 2 misreporting is small and is not statistically significant. The main source of underreporting is due to zero expenditure households that purchased goods but did not report the amount (type 1 misreporting).(3) Europe and Japan : Given the rapid aging of populations in advanced industrialized societies around the world, there is considerable interest about the attendant consequences. This analysis focuses on elderly consumer behavior in Europe and Japan. Regarding the demographic effect, we tested two types of specification such as translation and scaling including the equivalent adult scale known as the Amsterdam scale on food expenditure. Our finding indicates the Amsterdam scale is still workable for food expenditure adjustment in European countries. Less

(1)日本：日本：本分析考察了被称为“失去的十年”的90年代日本家庭的净资产变化，并分析了泡沫破裂冲击下的消费者行为变化。1994年的净资产价值约为1989年的30%。这种急剧下降影响了家庭储蓄行为。由于泡沫破裂时几乎所有家庭都经历了（未实现的）财富贬值，对所有家庭的消费刺激变得越来越弱。利用Chow检验，本文得出结论，由横截面产生的队列不同于由20世纪90年代的时间序列-横截面微观数据集产生的队列。(2)美国和日本：在许多国家，宏观经济和微观经济统计数据之间存在差距。为了解释这一差距，本分析检验了最初由Deaton和Irish（1984）提出的误报假设。用于估算的数据涉及10组耐用消费品， ...更多信息在美国的消费者支出调查中，如果家庭购买了商品但没有报告金额（类型1误报），或者购买了商品但错误地报告了金额（类型2误报），则会发生误报。第2类误报的测量误差方差较小，无统计学显著性。少报的主要原因是零支出家庭购买了商品但没有报告金额（第1类误报）。(3)欧洲和日本：鉴于世界各地先进工业化社会的人口迅速老龄化，人们对随之而来的后果相当感兴趣。本研究的重点是欧洲和日本的老年人消费行为。关于人口的影响，我们测试了两种类型的规格，如翻译和缩放，包括相当于成人规模称为阿姆斯特丹规模的食物支出。我们的研究结果表明，阿姆斯特丹量表仍然适用于欧洲国家的食品支出调整。少
