type:Article 本研究は，ラーニング・アシスタントを導入したマクロ経済学入門の大学の授業で，ラーニング・アシスタントが履修生の問題解答に関与することで，履修生の学習理解が高まるかを傾向スコアマッチング法によって分析した。その結果，ラーニング・アシスタントの介入を複数回受けた履修生の方がそうでない履修生よりも学習理解度が高まることが明らかになった。 identifier:http://repository.seikei.ac.jp/dspace/handle/10928/1689

This paper investigates the effectiveness of unconventional monetary policy in Japan by taking into account people's price expectations. First, a stability test revealed that the effects of the 2011 earthquake were not strong enough to have caused a structural break in the economy. Second, the impulse response analysis reveals that an expansionary policy has a temporary, positive effect on financial and real economic variables. However, the inflation rate does not increase to a statistically significant level from zero. Third, market participants' expectation of a devaluation of the yen occurs in advance of an actual increase in the monetary base. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

This paper classifies 175 countries over a period of just 30 years according to the balance of payments stages that are frequently used in proposing a hypothesis that the stage depends on the progression in a nation's development. Using a nonparametric estimation, this investigation demonstrates that a nation's stage in the balance of payments has a non-monotonic relationship with its economic development and that a country at the stage of immature creditor-lender enjoys a higher GDP per capita than at any other stage in its development. Another notable finding is that a lending country produces about twice the GDP per capita that a borrowing one does and that about 25% of countries in the world lend money to the rest of the world in nearly every year.

This paper examines the behavior of liquidity-constrained firms in a time-series. It illustrates that cash-shortage expectations induce a firm to hold liquid assets, which reveal a nonlinear relationship with the degree of financing constraints. This paper also argues that financial constraints could create serial correlation in a firm's internal funds even if exogenous shocks last for a single period of time. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

This paper examines the determinants of trade credit in Japanese manufacturing companies. The empirical analysis presents evidence that the volume of trade credit is influenced not only by transactional factors hut also by financial positions. The empirical test reveals that firms' future business prospects affect the volume of trade credit. Notably, for small firms whose liquidity is constrained, nontransactional factors such as an increase in cash Row reduce the need for trade credit. This paper also finds that trade payables act as a complement to bank loans. The quantitative relationship between trade payables and bank loans suggests that when monetary policy works in the financial markets, it also influences the trade-related credit markets.
