| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we could achieve the following purpose: (i) determined the reference values in five physical performance tests (5m walking time at comfortable pace, 5m walking time at maximum pace, timed up and go test, 5 repetition chair stand test and grip strength) for community-dwelling older people; (ii) developed the assessment system for judgement in physical performance test based on the reference values which was determined by this study; (iii) established the evidence for the association between functional decline in older people and judgment outcome by the assessment system. Through this study, we could develop the easy assessment system for judgement in physical performance tests for community-dwelling older people. Further, we showed that a judgment outcome by the assessment system could predict functional decline in older people; that fact indicated the usefulness of the assessment system which was developed in this study.
