Outline of Final Research Achievements

“Intercorporeality” is a foundation of human relationship. That is bodily functions which are able to understand between the bodies of the self-the other and also is bodily feelings which experienced in human movements. Recognition of “We” in bodily feelings is formed by acquiring bodily feelings in practices of physical education and sport and is no other than intercorporeality. Therefore it is especially important for schoolchildren to practice physical education and sport. For the future, studies of intercorporeality in physical education would require construction of method for describing the movement of the other and require extraction of the concrete bodily functions by using the method.
