| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Subjects were normal adults, intellectual disability adults, 2 year-old toddlers. Seven small lip pressure sensors and a strain sensor were placed at the bowl and the junction between bowl and handle of the spoon, respectively. 2ml of thick water, squash puree, water placed on spoon. Measurement parameters were the lip pressure, the strain at lower lip contact and the bending strain at withdrawal of spoon.
In normal adults, lip pressure of water was lower than puree and thick water. The bending strain Process did not result in a difference. Adult with intellectual disabilities, for different texture of food, lip pressure and control of upper extremity has changed. In addition, in children, in the puree, injection action was change by pressing a spoon to upper lip was observed. According to result, injection action of adult with intellectual disabilities and 2year-old toddler change the operation of the upper limb to adjust of food texture.
