Early-Career Funding Allocation and Cumulative Advantage in Scientific Careers: A Mathematical Model and Empirical AnalysisEarly-Career Research Funding and Cumulative Advantage in Scientific Careers: A Mathematical Model and Empirical AnalysisYuhei YamaguchiThe study presents a cumulative advantage model showing that receiving research funding early in one’s career leads to a research-performance advantage that continues to widen, even after accounting for differences in talent and graduate school attended. Using panel data on approximately 40,000 Japanese researchers across 8 fields, it reports that the advantage enjoyed by initial fellowship recipients is statistically significant and continues to grow more than 10 years later.

Consumer Preferences for Domestic Ingredients in Japan’s Ready-to-Eat Meals and Dining-Out Market: A Best-Worst Scaling AnalysisConsumer preferences for domestically produced ingredients in Japan’s ready-to-eat meals and dining out: a best–worst scaling analysisGuanjun Li · Kohei Yagi · Ting ChenAn online survey of Japanese consumers conducted in 2024 used best-worst scaling to analyze the relative importance of 11 food attributes for ready-to-eat meals (786 respondents) and dining out (771 respondents). Taste, price and safety ranked highest, while domestic ingredients ranked fifth in both settings. The findings indicate that domestic ingredients are a meaningful consideration, but rank relatively low unless linked to specific benefits such as taste or safety.

Did sanctions on Russia backfire? The macroeconomic effects of support for Ukraine on prices and economic growth across countriesDo Sanctions Backfire? New Evidence on the Macroeconomic Effects of Supporting UkraineVicente Rios · Izaskun Barba · Lisa GianmoenaUsing data from 129 countries over 2000–2024, the study distinguishes between the 2014 sanctions and the 2022 escalation, estimating the difference between sanctions-participating countries and their counterfactuals. From 2022 onward, the gap in consumer prices in participating countries widened by 0.072 log points, or approximately 7.5%, relative to 2019–2021, while no robust evidence was found of losses in real GDP per capita.

Financial Security Framework for Ukrainian Agricultural Holdings During Wartime: Assessment Methods and Risk ManagementFINANCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM OF UKRAINIAN AGRICULTURAL HOLDINGS UNDER WARTIME CONDITIONS: ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY AND RISK MANAGEMENTNina Poyda-NosykThis study developed a financial security assessment framework comprising 20 indicators across four areas for large agricultural holdings operating during wartime: financial stability; liquidity and solvency; profitability and efficiency; and access to financing and market position. Applied to 2019–2024 data for Kernel Holding, MHP and Astarta, the framework showed that FSI fell to 1.9–2.7 in 2022 before recovering in 2023–2024, with the industry’s average FSI reaching 3.3.

The Dynamic Trade-offs of Dual-Class Shares: Founder Incentives and Private Benefits of ControlThe Dynamic Trade-Off of Dual-Class SharesHyunseob Kim · Doron Levit · Roni MichaelyUsing a 1971–2022 panel of U.S. dual-class companies, the study finds that firm value, measured by Tobin’s q, rises by 0.21 in the year following a change from single-class to dual-class shares, while the valuation gap nearly disappears after about 10 years. By contrast, innovation, measured by patent citations, increases persistently. In mature companies, private benefits of control expand, making investment less responsive to opportunities.

Unofficial simulator for estimating Japan’s reported proposals for new permanent residence criteriajp-pr-calculator: Japan permanent-residency new-criteria simulator (unofficial)Kam-lung Sam YipThis independent, trilingual tool calculates an income gate based on average household income and a pension gate based on projected pension benefits for Employees’ Pension Insurance enrollees, reflecting reported proposals to tighten Japan’s permanent residence criteria. It uses 2024 average income for all households, ¥5.722 million, as the initial income benchmark. The system remains unfinalized, and the calculations for projected pension benefits and the assets required based on any shortfall are the author’s own methodology.

Centrality in Interlocking Director Networks and Downward Cost Stickiness among Japanese Listed CompaniesAn Empirical Study of the Centrality of Interlocking Director Networks and Downward Cost StickinessHarada Haruki (原田春貴)Using Japanese listed companies for the fiscal years ending March 2003 through March 2024, this study examined how centrality in interlocking director networks relates to cost stickiness, the tendency of selling, general and administrative expenses to decline less when sales fall. Under degree centrality and structural constraint, firms with higher centrality exhibited greater cost stickiness, and the three-way interaction terms among sales changes, sales declines and the network measures were statistically significant at −0.0399 and −0.0351, respectively. The effect of closeness centrality was not consistent: the results suggest that it may increase stickiness in firms facing high demand uncertainty while promoting cost adjustment in more stable firms.
