| Summary |
This research project investigates children's living and learning situations and parents' child-rearing situations over several years and clarifies how they change as children grow up. This will enable us to grasp the current situation and issues in children's lives, learning, and child-rearing and consider how to provide better education and child-rearing. The following three points characterize this research project: (1) Because the survey is conducted continuously every year, it is possible to capture the "present" and "changing times" of first-grade elementary school students through high school seniors. (2) Because the same children and their parents are continuously surveyed, the "growth and development" process of parents and children can be captured. (3) The survey provides a broad and detailed picture of children's attitudes and actual conditions related to their lives and learning. This survey is the Wave 7 (2021 Base Survey) of the “Japanese Longitudinal Study of Children and Parents.” |

Non-probability: Quota
Non-probability: Quota Parent-child survey Wave1: "Survey panels" were recruited from February 2014 to May 2015 to "survey panel recruitment targets" selected from a list of first-grade elementary school students to third-grade high school students nationwide, according to the ratio of students in seven regions of Japan (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology "School Basic Survey" 2013-2014). Parent-child survey Wave 2: Questionnaires were distributed to the same "survey panels" as in Wave 1. However, as in Wave 1, first-grade elementary school students were selected according to the proportion of first-grade students in seven regions of Japan and added to the "survey panels.” Parent-child survey Wave 3: Questionnaires were distributed to those who had responded to at least one of Wave 1 or Wave 2 as "survey panels"; as in Wave 1 and Wave 2, first-grade elementary school students were added to the "survey panels.” Parent-child survey Wave 4 and after: As in Wave 1 and Wave 2, "survey panels" will include first-grade students each year. |
