title: [[Household formation of young married males in Japan:  past and future]].
abstract: The author investigates reasons for changes in the rate of household formation by young married men in Japan.  "We have constructed a model which explains the change in headship rate, composed with three variables:  the proportion coresiding with parents..., the headship rate for the coresiding...and the headship rate for the non-coresiding..., and we have contrived a way to obtain these three variables utilizing the Census tabulations.  With this analysis, while the decrease of headship rate during 1975 to 1985 had been brought about by the rise of proportion coresiding and the decline of headship rate for the coresiding, the augmentation from 1985 to 1990 was caused exclusively by the returning decrease in the proportion coresiding."
