No full textWhat should Supervisors do for Students with Mental Disabilities as Reasonable Accommodation ?
No full textThe Act for Eliminating Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities（AEDPD） requires professors to endeavor to provide reasonable accommodation to eliminate social barriers against persons with disabilities provided the burden associated with the relevant implementation is not disproportionate（AEDPD arts 7 and 8）. Under the AEDPD, “disability” encompasses not just physical disability but also mental and developmental disabilities. Therefore, university faculty have to respond to students with mental disabilities. However, mental disabilities are so diverse that the university or the faculty cannot prepare a specific response. What should the faculty do for students with such mental deficits ? This paper analyzes this question. Generally speaking, even supervisors cannot get much information about students’ deficits. In addition, supervisors cannot respond to the mental deficits even if they hear the information first-hand from the students because mental deficits are so diverse. Therefore, it is beyond the reasonable accommodation as required by the Act to implement a specific strategy. All the supervisor can do is to give students some rest breaks. Waiting for students, therefore, is the reasonable accommodation based on the act. To permit supervisors to allow additional time for students, the universities and the higher education agency should relax regulations relating to the ratio of the graduations within the standard year of study for the students with mental disabilities
Technological Stagnation or Rising Market Power? : Evidence from the Japanese Computer Hardware Industry
No full textTechnological innovation in computer hardware, often measured by rapid decline in the relative price of computer hardware, significantly boosted productivity growth in the past. The massive decline in these relative prices stopped during the last two decades globally. To disentangle the causes behind recent price increases, we structurally estimate supply and demand model using detailed Japanese computer productlevel data from 2006 to 2015, and back out the marginal costs and markups. Our results indicate that price reductions in earlier sample period resulted from marginal cost decreases, while the price stabilization in later sample period reflects halted technological progress rather than increased market power. Recent PC market trends suggest genuine technological stagnation

US Credit Spillovers to Small Open Economies : A Proxy-VAR Approach
No full textThis paper examines the spillovers of US credit supply to small open economies by focusing on three Asian economies, Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan, from 1999 to 2019.We employ a proxy vector autoregressive model (VAR) to identify credit supply shocks in the US and estimate dynamic responses in these Asian economies. Similar to Mian, Sufi and Verner (2017), we find that output in Asian economies increases in the short run but decreases in the long run in response to a positive credit supply shock. The estimated effects are comparable to the responses to domestic credit expansion
