| Outline of Research at the Start |
I plan to do‘lab-in-the-field’ economic experiments on household decision-making. FY2021 will be a year of planning. I will then run two economic experiments on decision-making in FY2022 and FY2023 with married couples in Indonesia. I plan to present the results at international conferences and send them for publication in academic journals.
|
| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
I ran a conference on field experiments at GRIPS where my contribution to a book on experiments in development economics was discussed. We also organized special sessions on the methodology on lab in the field experiments. The draft chapter is reviewed and accepted and is available online and a rewritten version is now available. I co-authored another chapter for a different book on the relationship between behavioural economics and household behaviour in collaboration with a colleague in France.
After visiting Jakarta, it became clearer that post-Covid backlogs with our Indonesian partners were significant. I worked on the experimental designs in discussion with partners in Indonesia. I wrote protocols for implementation and some progress was made on the translation and training.

Current Status of Research Progress
4: Progress in research has been delayed.
Reason
I very much regret that the project is well behind schedule. Initially Covid restrictions in Indonesia and Japan slowed progress, but post-Covid the backlog of work in Indonesia has been large. I have applied and received a one year extension; I have a new liaison person for Indonesia and we are working quickly to conduct the experiments.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
We have asked for and received an extension of one year. We have a new liaison person for Indonesia. We are currently setting up the field work which will be conducted in Autumn in 2024.
