Outline of Final Research Achievements

We summarized the transition of the results of the national awareness survey on social security, which has been conducted every five years since 2000. As a result, the ratio of those who supported high welfare and high burden tended to increase until 2010, but it turned out to be back to the 2000 level from 2010 to 2015. However, their support structure is different, and the effect of age diminishes. It was not possible to observe the phenomenon called youth social security zone familiarity. In addition, no tendency was observed for the elderly to especially desire social security complaints.
