| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In 2013, the authors observed spontaneous actions of children with severe motor and intellectual disabilities (MID) as an action research. Spontaneous actions of children with MID increased in physical environments where there were few noise and children could receive comfortable stimuli for them (high S/N ratio environments), but especially slow frequent comfortable stimuli were effective to increase their spontaneous actions. Then, in 2014 and 2015, we examined spontaneous actions in high S/N ratio environments with high frequent stimuli conditions, slow frequent stimuli conditions, and the control condition. Spontaneous actions of children with MID were recorded with one of “Kinect with Windows” and their physiological reactions were analyzed with an analytical instrument for salivary amylase activity and an autonomic nerve activity measuring instrument.
