>The ability of the Japanese is extremely low in the world ranking when evaluated at the working level. However, at the elementary and junior high school level, they are among the best in the world. This indicates a major problem in universities and other institutions of higher education. Why do Japanese people stop studying?
>Previously, we showed that Japan’s performance is extremely poor in terms of the number of scientific papers per population. By some indicators, it is near the lowest in the world. This is not the only reason why Japan’s performance is undesirable. Various international competitiveness rankings have been published, and Japan’s performance is consistently poor.
