| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This paper provides new evidence on long-term consequences of the atomic bombing in Hiroshima. Our empirical results show that Atomic Bomb Survivors did not necessarily suffer unfavorable life experiences in terms of the average marriage status or educational attainment but did experience significant disadvantages some aspects including the husband/wife combination of married couples, work status, mental health, and expectations for the future. Moreover, the negative effect of lower birth weight seems to fade out over the life course but the effect on symptoms of depression and life satisfaction in older ages could be exacerbated if mothers are affected by the atomic bombing. Further, level of grip strength that contains significant information on health or mortality in subsequent years is significantly lower for individuals affected by the atomic bombing. Thus, survivors have suffered for many years after the catastrophe itself.
