I was hired by the Cabinet Office, but I have had many opportunities to work as a researcher not only in the Economic and Social Research Institute of the Cabinet Office but also in various places that are named as research institutes, such as the RENGO-RIALS, the Japan Center for Economic Research. I have analyzed short, medium, and long term economic trends, prepared forecasts, and ex-ante analysis of economic policy using applied general equilibrium models. I also have worked on measuring and analyzing subjective well-being, quality of health care and long-term care to improve GDP statistics, and the quality of organizational management.
(1) Research on measurement of subjective wellbeing and policy applications
