| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
In AY2023 the main focus was on analysing data collected from the first survey conducted in AY2022. The analysis had taken longer than expected. Thus, the second survey that was scheduled for AY2023 was postponed to this academic year. Despite this, two key objectives based on data collected from the first survey were achieved. First, the finding of the first study was presented at the International Studies Association Asia-Pacific Region conference held in August 2023. Second, the abstract of the second study was accepted by the Japanese Political Science Association conference that is scheduled to be held in June 2024.
