Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Humans can percieve the presence, motion and emotion of animate being for limited motion information (biological motion perception; BM). We investigated the perceptual strategy in discriminating the walking direction of normal and HAKOBI walkers using BM stimuli. The direction discrimination was more difficult for the lower body of the HAKOBI walkers than those of the normal walkers. The effects of upper body qualitatively varied depending upon the task performance, although the effects were weaker than those of lower body. These results imply that the perceptual strategy, especailly how to use upper and lower body information, depends on the discriminability of walking direction.
