Under the current financial and economic situation, risk control of financial institutes is becoming one of the most significant factors to stabilize the economic condition. One of the most important methods for risk controlling is the evaluation of rating for each company, and now a generalized linear regression model such as the ordered logit model has been widely used in the preceding studies of the rating forecasting model.     In statistical modeling, the multi-nominal logit model as well as many other models have been developed from the multi-nominal logit model and are expected to decrease the I.I.A. (Independence from Irrelevant Alternatives) assumption. However, these models have not usually been used in the study of rating forecasting model so far.     In this study, we will construct a rating forecasting model based on the normal ordered logit model, multi-nominal logit model and nested logit model, and compare the model performance among these models. Finally, we will confirm the validity of these models by applying them to actual publicly disclosed rating data.

In this study, a secondary factor analysis of multiple populations with a structured mean was applied to the independent, and mean values were decomposed into common and unique components. In this manner, a method for discovering the most effective model was proposed. In order to ensure the practical effectiveness of this method, the data of Brand Japan from 2004 to 2006 was analyzed. This data was composed of 1,000 brands and 15 variables. As a result, some models fitted to the data well in all variations of models, and the best model could be decided by interpreting meanings. This model was applied to the brand data, and factor scores were calculated for every construct. Characteristics of every brand were discovered by observing its movement.

Public confidence in the police has become an important issue in many countries because high levels of trust and confidence can allow the public to believe the police organisation is accountable and legitimate. Much empirical research on public attitudes towards policing is available in Western countries, and it has been revealed that community policing can affect the levels of trust and confidence in the police both positively and negatively. Using data from an online survey, this article seeks to address the impact of community policing on public trust and confidence in the Japanese police. The results of a series of hierarchical multiple regression models demonstrated that being female, participating in crime prevention and self-defence classes are associated with high levels of trust in the police, while being liberal and experiencing police-initiated contact are associated with low levels of trust in the police. The implications of the findings for theory, research, and policing policy and practice are discussed.

This paper aims to clarify which characteristics influence the number of urban park visitors. The study employs a residual analysis as a heuristic approach, which is a useful approach to choose explanatory variables effectively. In fact these characteristics are difficult to identify among numerous related variables, and a big residual value may involve the significant factor. The results reveal five major factors to have influences on the number of park visitors in concern: 1) population living in park's service distance; 2) volume of tall trees; 3) number of simple amusement equipment/facilities; 4) width of streets facing to a park; and 5) park elevation relative to surrounding road level. In addition, it was found that a block park has a service distance of 250 to 350 meters.

Massey's method is a rating system that provides individual teams or players ranking. It is known that Massey's rating is related to the Katz centrality measure of the networks. Analyzing the node centrality of networks provides useful information on how important a node is. This study investigates a sampling distribution of Massey's rating and provides the test statistics of the null hypothesis of equal rating against the alternatives. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to compare the power of the proposed test and show that the asymptotic distribution of the ratings is well approximated by the normal distributions. Real dataset applications using men's tennis ATP ratings are illustrated.

This study examines the factors influencing item nonresponse, especially when it comes to income and sexual behavior, in the Japanese context. Many item nonresponses on questions on income and sexual behavior are a serious problem for analysis since they might cause biased estimations. However, many previous studies on item nonresponse when it comes to income and sexual issues examine surveys carried out in Western societies. Moreover, many previous studies have not distinguished between “Refused” and “Don't Know.” In addition, many previous studies on income nonresponse do not focus on the effect of religion, although questions on religion have been argued to affect survey cooperation. Thus, we analyzed the data from the Japanese General Social Survey 2000/2001 to distinguish the reason for nonresponse properly, reveal factors on income and sexual behavior nonresponses, and examined the effect of religion. We conducted multinomial logistic regressions of nonresponse in household income, individual income, and sexual behavior. Our findings are as follows: (1) Factors that affected nonresponses of income and sexual behavior are different between Japanese and Western societies. (2) The effect of age and educational background are different between “Refused” and “Don't Know.” (3) Respondents whose family has a religion tended to answer with household income. These findings indicate that we should consider the nonresponse mechanism due to the Japanese-specific context, distinguish the reason for nonresponse because of different effects of factors, and focus on the effect of religion on income nonresponse.

While the crude mortality rate for lung cancer has been increasing year by year for both men and women, the age-adjusted mortality rate, which is calculated based on the base year population, has been decreasing since the 1990s. We will discuss the influence of specific generations on this peak in age-adjusted mortality rates by comparing age-adjusted mortality rates based on multiple base-year populations and by examining time-series trends in the percentage of the population in each 5-year age group in crude mortality rates.

Causal mediation analysis estimates causal effects by focusing on the mediators between cause and outcome. Multiple causally related mediators are often strongly correlated, making the estimation of causal effects difficult. In addition, recent years have seen a number of mediators compared to a sample size. In this paper, we propose a two-step estimation method based on sparse partial least squares regression and pathway lasso. The proposed method can identify the causal pathways among many candidate causal pathways. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown by simulation studies and a real data analysis.

This paper is an essay on nonrespondent bias in statistical random sampling surveys. In particular, it focuses on the personalities of respondents and nonrespondents in survey cooperation. First, I review previous relevant research on nonrespondent bias and outline the main points of the nonrespondent bias problem. Next, focusing on items related to interpersonal trust, I analyze personality differences between cooperative and non-cooperative respondents using time series data from the Japanese National Character Survey and its related surveys. I then present rules of thumb that may be useful for survey researchers dealing with nonrespondent bias. Finally, I discuss future issues. Particular mention will be made of social disparities in electoral voting and polling, i.e., people who tend to drop out of electoral voting and polling.

The purpose of this study is to discussthe implementation and importanceabout the multinomial logit model of Bayesian Age-Period-Cohort analysis. Since the design matrix of three factorsdoes not become full rankdue to the identification problem derived fromlinear dependency between age, period and cohort, few studies have useda complex model. In contrast, this paper presents the practical multinomial logit model withefficient sampling by reparameterizationabout the constraints of assuming a random walk for each effect. Furthermore, we compared the estimates ofthe logit model andthe multidimensional modelabout political issuesthat should be considered from multiple perspectives. Using repeated cross-sectional survey in Japanfrom 1973 to 2013, the multinomial logit model was shown to be effectivebecause it was able to obtain a trendthat were not captured in the logit model.

This review addresses the development of computational models in educational psychology. First, we generally explained computational models and their background. Second, we searched academic articles relating to computational models in psychology and other fields. The search revealed that, on the one hand, international journals in behavioral or cognitive sciences include several articles relating to computational models, and the number is increasing in general psychology journals. On the other hand, domestic and international educational psychology journalsscarcely have relating papers. Third, we described the current challenges in educational psychology and how the ideas and analytical method on computational models would contribute to overcome these challenges.

In conducting an exploratory data analysis to study the hit mechanisms of manga and anime works with appealing supporting characters, the author began by assessing the volume and content of Twitter posts on Demon Slayer and observed that SNS not only facilitated communication between devoted fans, but also served to fulfill the desire to own merchandise and to provide a place for publication of derivative works. Furthermore, in an analysis using the Character Quantitative Survey unaided recall data, the top unaided recall works were classified into four types based on supporting character popularity patterns. The results obtained by creating a composite variable of unaided recall weighted by simple total based on the number of recall of the work's name or character and assessing the mean values and correlations of each variable measured for each work showed that the composite variable of unaided recall had a strong correlation with the indices of tie-in merchandise purchase and purchase intention, and with the indices of ‘high spirit and fun’ and ‘attention and impersonation’ in the field of offered experience.
