This study investigates the effects of the 2002 Japanese reforms of compulsory education on household expenditure on supplementary schooling and out-of-school activities for junior high school students. These reforms marked a dramatic change in Japan's compulsory education system in two main respects: from April 2002, every Saturday became a public school holiday and instructional time was reduced following the government's revisions of national curriculum guidelines, leaving private schools largely unaffected. Based on aggregate data taken from the Child Study Expenditure Survey, the difference-indifferences estimation households with children attending public schools as the treatment group and those attending private schools as the control group reveals that the 2002 educational reforms increased target household expenditure on supplementary education by 13% and spending on outdoor activities/volunteering, arts, sports, and cultural activities by 23%. Disaggregated analysis based on microdata taken from the National Survey of Family Income and Expenditure carried out by the Bureau of Statistics further reveals that the impacts of these educational reforms were larger for higher-income households than for lower-income ones.

The life cycle/permanent income hypothesis (LCPIH) entails two postulates: People have rational expectations and people do not have problems with self-control. If either or both of these postulates do not apply, we cannot obtain a testable implication for the LCPIH. We use Japanese representative panel data that include responses to self-reported and retrospective questions in order to elicit behavior such as forward-looking and self-control problems. We test the rational expectations hypothesis and the LCPIH implication and find that rational consumers do not change their expenditure in response to expected income changes, which we restrict to fit the two LCPIH postulates.

Using an original dataset, we investigated the determinants of individual preferences for income redistribution in India. Different from previous studies, our results show that economic-related conditions do not explain people's tastes for redistribution so much. While future prospects for economic status have a statistically significant impact on preferences for redistributive policies, the current household income level does not explain individual preferences for redistribution. On the contrary, the impact of the current income level is lessened to a large extent by controlling caste membership. This suggests that the social hierarchy which is based on caste is a crucial determinant of economic status in India. Furthermore, the results show that the relative economic position compared with people in the neighborhood is an important factor; relatively wealthy individuals are more likely to favor greater redistribution. This seemingly "noblesse oblige" effect can be explained mostly by religious belief.訂正のため本文ファイル差し替え(2013年2月8日)

本稿の目的は，恒常所得のショックに対する消費行動の変化のパターンを尋ねた仮想的質問を用いて，家計の消費行動がどのような理論仮説と整合的かを調べることである．ライフサイクル・恒常所得仮説（LCPIH）によれば，人々は恒常所得の変化というショックに直面するとその時点で消費を変化させる．しかし，LCPIHと整合的な選択をした家計の割合は日本で1.6%，アメリカで3.9%にすぎない．家計が選択した消費のパターンには，家計間で多様性が見られる．多数派の家計は，日米ともに恒常的な所得が増加してもすぐに消費を変化させないと回答している．この消費経路の選択は，資産選好モデルと整合的である．また，恒常所得の変化に対して消費を徐々に変化させるという合理的習慣形成理論とも整合的な家計が多い．さらに，実際に借入制約に直面している家計において，借入制約の理論の予測と仮想的質問の選択結果が整合的であることが明らかとなった．
