Abstract

<p>This study focuses on the status of activities for independent living in education for the physically disabled/health impaired in Japan. In the case of children with a physical disability or impaired health, the teacher focuses on giving instruction in Physical Movements and Health Maintenance activities for independent living (Jiritsu katsudo). The number of children with emotional/mental health disorders has been increasing in recent years, highlighting the need for Psychological Stability; however, practical methods for addressing this have not yet been established. In the future, it will be necessary to promote research in this area because the variety of children with disabilities in the field of education for the physically disabled/health impaired may grow even more.</p>
