Masanori Kuroki's research investigates the intersection of economic policy and public health, with a particular focus on mental health outcomes and healthcare access. His work examines the impact of state-level minimum wage policies on mental health and health insurance coverage in the United States, utilizing data from 2011–2019 and 2008–2018, respectively. Kuroki also studies the relationship between housing affordability and mental health, analyzing data from 2013–2020. Additionally, he has published research on the effects of health insurance coverage, specifically examining the influence of Medicaid expansion on homeownership and housing prices, and the impact of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on healthcare coverage and out-of-pocket medical expenses. Kuroki also contributes to pedagogical research, exploring the integration of data science tools like Python and Google Colab into undergraduate econometrics and microeconomic theory courses, and the use of Kaggle competitions for teaching econometrics.
