On the Relationship between Price and Services of Senior Housing in Japan

本研究围绕（1）日本长期护理的经济效果、（2）日本老年住宅市场的重组、（3）日本老年住宅价格与服务的关系等三个主题展开。结果如下。(1)在通过投入产出分析对日本长期护理产业的经济效果进行估算时，我们得出的结论是，日本长期护理产业属于劳动密集型产业，在第一种效果方面，其经济效果比其他产业要小，但在包括第二种和第三种效果在内的整体效果方面，其经济效果可能比其他产业要大。(2)以监督和咨询服务为主要内容的新型老年住宅立法后，日本老年住宅市场迅速扩大，并有可能取代传统的老年住宅。(3)老年人住房的价格与照顾者的数量密切相关。但应该注意，因为这个数字不是真实的，而是广告。

In this study, there are three themes such as (1) the economic effect of long-term care in Japan, (2) reorganization of senior housing market in Japan, (3) the relationship between price and services of senior housing in Japan. The results are as follows. (1) When estimating the economic effect of Japanese long-term care sector by input and output analysis, we conclude that Japanese long-term care sector which is categorized as labor-intensive has less impact than others in terms of the first effect but the whole impact including the second and the third effects can be more than others. (2) After the legislation of a new kind of senior housing featuring monitoring and consulting service, Japanese senior housing market has expanded rapidly and it is possible that the new one would replace traditional ones in the future. (3) The price of senior housing is strongly related with the number of care givers. But attention should be paid because that number is not real but advertised.
