| Research Abstract |
The purposes of this research project are (a) empirical analyses on the performances of Japanese law schools and the behavior of applicants to the schools and (b) developing econometric methods for these types of empirical researches. In this report, I give an overview of the main results presented at academic conferences during the research period. First I proposed the method for estimating efficiency distribution when the outcome is nonlinear in the efficiency factors. The pass rate of Japanese Bar Examination by school is a typical example. Second I generalized nonlinear dynamic regression model to be estimated by panel data.
