抄録
Though the observation of moving actions in patients with severe functional injuries, it was found that the creeping action is generally performed in the TATAMI (floor-mat)-living mode of Japanese life.
The author has attempted to investigate the causes and effects of "creeping action ", and classified the types of this creeping action, and investigated the auxiliary action of the hands accompanying the creeping action.
The creeping action itself is performed by 3 actions, namely "crawling on all fours ", "buttock-chafing ", and "kneeling ". And, the auxiliary actions of the hands are classified as "palm-type ", "grip-type" and "dorsal hand-type ", according to the way the hands are used.
