研究実績の概要 |
This study examines the forms and functions of the symbols used in the public sphere in Japan within the broad framework of political behavior and communication. For this purpose, data was collected during 2019-2020 from political interview programs aired on four television channels. Interviews from these programs were selected, recorded, and transcribed. Based on a methodology utilized by the chief researcher in previous research, criteria for identifying questions and responses were determined. Two coding sheets were devised for analyzing the structure and verbal content of the interviews, the interviewees' responses manner and style, and the key topics at the core of the interview. In 2020-2021 data from the two coding sheets were gathered and the analyze took place.

理由
After overcoming the problems regarding the training of two coders of the data, including achieving a high level of agreement between the coders (checking reliability by the Cohen's kappa coefficient) the analysis proceeded. At the same time, discussion over the significance of the analysis and the the study's data continued with international colleagues and collaborators in different academic societies. Receiving their feedback on the significant of this study helped in organizing a research papers, books chapters, and a full book presenting much of the data gathered and analyzed within the framework of the current study.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
In the following research, efforts will be allocated to construct a model on the nature, characteristics, role, and usage of political symbols in Japan. To construct this model, focus will be on the nature of the symbols interviewees used during interviews, and who they rely on and quote when presenting replies to questions. This will follow by the symbols sources use (issues or non-issues), and the attributes of the respondents (e.g., position in government, political affiliation). The ensuing research will further analyze the relationship between the questions' level of threat to face and interviewees' tendency to reply to questions. All these with the intention to compare the case of Japan with the situation in other countries on the functions of symbols in the conduct of politics.

次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
This is mostly because I wasn't able to continue with the analysis and summarize the results in academic papers and to attend international meeting in order to present this study results and significance. (使用計画) In the next fiscal year, as in this fiscal year, I plan to use personnel expenses for such goals as data analysis, and for editing/rewriting papers before presenting them in international associations and in international journals and books. For that matter part of the expenses will be used to participation in international scientific meetings and for collaboration in research with Europeans and American colleagues.
