32 9. Conclusion NTA/NTTA as a necessary tool for Japan to monitor & analyze the aging society! Focus 1: Socializing elderly care increased total public costs for elderlies, but reduced both medical costs and disabled elderlies Focus 2: Free high school tuition and child allowances decreased household education costs for secondary education, while those of postsecondary education increased Focus 3: a. There is a large gender gap in paid and unpaid work in Japan both in time and monetary basis. b. The gender gaps narrow a bit in both paid and unpaid work by age of 4. 32

33 1. Future work Examination of the shifts or changes in focused points - Running regression models to control for demographic and socioeconomic components behind the age and sex 33
