Abstract

As for the generation, for example we say about the old person, it is not suitable to categorize the person of older age into old person or old-old person. I have a sense of discomfort about the word Otoshiyori - elderly person. There are two types of old people, old people full of energy with work or volunteers, and old people with cognitive impairment or with paralysis in her/his body who needs nursing care. So, we don’t see the kind of old people who lives the rest of her/his life lightheartedly in the town. We cannot apply the kind of vigorous older people to an elderly person. Then how can we consider the contents of generation except for the age? We can understand the difference inside age when we think about their life relation pattern (leading activity) under some events. This theory based on Vygotsky’s Study Group will give us a new phase about intergenerational relationship. I tried to explain the thoughts explicitly in this thesis.
