In recent years, the importance of objectively measuring the effects of studying abroad among Japanese students and presenting it as scientific evidence has been indicated, and indeed, such empirical studies have increased. Specifically, they are attempts to measure the effects of studying abroad by using diagnostic tools that can withstand academic use and taking at least one test before and after studying abroad. This study also falls within that context. However, unlike previous studies that only relied on simple measurement results from a single occasion, this study compares control group A, which did not receive the overall measurement and diagnosis results before and after studying abroad, with control group B, which did receive them. The purpose of this study is to clarify how the measurement values differ between the two groups after studying abroad, that is,
how the educational effects change. As a result of the survey, both control groups A and B showed differences in gender and class, but control group B, which received overall measurement and diagnosis results and was made aware in advance, showed a significant increase in the number and extent of changes in indicators compared to control group A.
