| 研究実績の概要 |
Research conducted on the first phase of the project during FY2016 included the construction of an updated data set, new data analysis, and seminar presentations. Transcription of hospital admission records was outsourced to a data entry firm, and the output of female patient records received was incorporated with previously collected data for male patients. I applied for and received access to restricted-use individual-level UK census data, which included person names and street addresses, from the UK Data Archive. This process has be delayed by over a year due to negotiations over access conditions. However, once available, this data was combined with other variables in the census to match individual records from the hospital registers to the census records, to create an updated version of the data set. In addition, data from marriage certificates of female patients and their siblings were collected from genealogy websites. Empirical analysis is ongoing. I was invited to present the working paper based on the research at the University of British Columbia, Seoul National University, and at the Ce2 Workshop in Warsaw, Poland, and presented the paper internally at Hitotsubashi.
I have also begun work on the second phase of the project, which involves studying the contribution of funding for hospital provided by the Duke Endowment to reducing racial disparities in health in the U.S. South during the early-twentieth century. I identified data on the funding provided by the Duke Endowment, hospital openings and other measures of hospital care from published annual reports.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
I have made good progress on the first stage of the project, completing construction of the updated data set of male and female patients linked to census records as planned. It was not necessary to travel to Minnesota during FY 2016 to access de-anonymized complete count census data because the necessary data was made available to me for use at Hitotsubashi University through the UK Data Archive.
The second stage of the project on racial disparities in health in the U.S. South has also progressed satisfactorily. Having completed initial data collection, I will begin preliminary data analysis. While I had originally intended to travel to Durham, North Carolina, to obtain archival records, the necessary material for initial data collection was made available for use at Northwestern University. The originally planned research trip will take place in FY2017 upon completion of the preliminary data analysis.
|
| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
The results of the empirical analysis will be published in a working-paper series (e.g. CESifo) to share our findings with other researchers in the field. I will also submit the working papers for presentation at international conferences and seek opportunities to present the research at invited seminars. Feedback received from comments on the draft and seminar attendees will be incorporated into revisions prior to journal submission. Upon completion of the project, an anonymized version of the hospital records will be made available on my personal website for future use by other researchers.
|
| 次年度使用額の使用計画 |
In FY2017, the remaining amount of the grant will be used for research trips to Raleigh, North Carolina, to obtain records from the Duke Endowment Archives, and to meet with research collaborator Krzysztof Karbownik. The grant will also cover transcription costs, travel to international conferences, and research assistant salary.
