Current Status of Research Progress
3: Progress in research has been slightly delayed.
Reason
The conceptual portion of the research was unusually fruitful, which led to some publication opportunities and new avenues for empirical research. As a result, in addition to the planned publications, I was able to create a successful presentation at an international conferece and a third manuscript is in preparation to be submitted to a Q1 journal in the coming months. In addition, Tokyo data collection is proceeding but has not yet been completed. As a result, the regional data collection is only just beginning, which represents a slight delay relative to the original research plan.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
In AY2024, I plan to complete data collection in both Tokyo and the Regional areas, complete data analysis, and begin the dissemination of results in both journals and presentations.
|
| Causes of Carryover |
Fieldwork is still ongoing, Expenditures will be made to cover the cost of fieldwork that could not be conducted in FY2023. The overall research goal is the same as was originally planned, so it is important to catch up with fieldwork. As stated on the previous page, the following year's research plan includes a large amount of fieldwork and the start of dissemination of the research. As a result, expenses have increased and focus on fieldwork and travel costs. - Tokyo and regional data collection (day trips to research locations to conduct interviews). Qualitative data analysis of interview data. Presentation of preliminary findings at 2 conferences.
