This book first presents an overview of the history of a national
character survey by the Institute of Statistical Mathematics that
has been conducted for more than 65 years. The Japanese National
Character Survey, launched in 1953, is a rare longitudinal survey
in the world of survey research based on rigorous statistical
sampling theory, motivating other countries to launch similar
longitudinal surveys, including the General Social Survey (GSS),
the Allgemeine Bevoelkerungsumfrage der Sozialwissenschaften
(ALLBUS, German General Social Survey (GGSS)), Eurobarometer, and
others. Since the early 1970s, the Japanese survey has been
extended as a cross-national survey for more advanced research of
the Japanese national character in a comparative context. Second,
the book explains the paradigm of cross-national studies called the
Cultural Manifold Analysis (CULMAN), developed in the longitudinal
and cross-national surveys, with practical examples of analysis.
This explanation will help helps a wide range of readers to better
understand the cross-national comparative surveys of attitudes,
opinion, and social values as basic information for evidence-based
policymaking and research.
This edited book is the first one written in English that deals
comprehensively with behavior metrics. The term
“behaviormetrics” comprehends the research including all sorts
of quantitative approaches to disclose human behavior. Researchers
in behavior metrics have developed, extended, and improved methods
such as multivariate statistical analysis, survey methods, cluster
analysis, machine learning, multidimensional scaling, corresponding
analysis or quantification theory, network analysis, clustering,
factor analysis, test theory, and related factors. In the spirit of
behavior metrics, researchers applied these methods to data
obtained by surveys, experiments, or websites from a diverse range
of fields. The purpose of this book is twofold. One is to
represent studies that display how the basic elements of behavior
metrics have developed into present-day behavior metrics. The other
is to represent studies performed mainly by those who would like to
pioneer new fields of behavior metrics and studies that display
elements of future behavior metrics. These studies consist of
various characteristics such as those dealing with theoretical or
conceptual subjects, the algorithm, the model, the method, and the
application to a wide variety of fields. This book helps readers to
understand the present and future of behavior metrics.
