“…According to Kitajima and colleagues (Kitajima, Koike, Katada, et al, 1993), expectancy responses can be considered to reflect active attention towards a stimulus, and they point out that expectancy responses appear when a pleasant emotion arises in particular. In this study, the heart rate increase that was viewed as an orienting response from Student A was limited to when he saw the faces of his mother and father and former homeroom teacher with whom he had interacted on a daily basis, and based on this, since good relationships had been created through daily interactions with Student A, it was inferred that an expectancy response appeared that coincided with a pleasant emotion upon seeing the faces of his mother and father and former homeroom teacher.…”

Children with severe motor and intellectual disabilities (hereinafter, "children with SMID") produce only slight movements in response to surrounding influences, and it is difficult to evaluate their remaining sensory functions through behavioral observation alone. In this study, we focused on a first-grade Junior high-school student (hereinafter, "Student A") with concurrent visual (light perception only) and hearing (complete deafness) disabilities in addition to severe motor and intellectual disabilities, who was attending a "Special Needs Education School for the Physically Challenged", and we evaluated the student's sensory functions using the heart rate index. As a result, an orienting response, where the presentation of visual light and color stimuli coincides with a transient reduction in heart rate, was found to be highly reproducible, which suggests that the student perceives visual stimuli. Similarly, in response to facial stimuli, Student A's heart rate response to familiar and unfamiliar faces differed, with the heart rate decreasing in response to unfamiliar faces, and increasing in response to familiar faces. Based on this, it seems likely that Student A differentiates faces, and that his heart rate response differs depending on his affinity for the face. While Student A's visual functionality was previously diagnosed by a physician as light perception only, the results of this study suggest that Student A may retain the visual functionality to differentiate and recognize people. severe motor and intellectual disabilities (SMID), heart-rate fluctuation, visual function evaluation oishida.iworld@gmail.com (Osamu ISHIDA; Japan) Asian J Human Services, 2017, 13:36 -48.

“…The present study examined the perfbrmance of the participants on a sample matching task (see Table 1). (Kitajima et al, 1993). Heart rate changes with increasing deflection during the S1-S2 interval have been considered to relate to emotional responses such as laughing induced by the S2 stimuli (Katagiri et al,, 1999 The darker lines signify the results of trials of matching identical pictures (match-trials), and the lighter lines, the results of trials of matching diffErent pictures (mismatch-trials).…”

early development of the understanding of words in such children is needed for usefu1 application of the technology of augmentative and alternative communication (Oishi, 2006). In a study of early development of understanding words, Nagasaki and Onosato (1996) examined behavior patterns of young infants at about 8 months and above. They fbund that young in± 'ants can pay attention to objects pointed to by their mothers. Nagasaki and Onosato (1996) also noted that visual discrimination ot' object shapes develops during early infancy, in that infants can identify objects that their mothers indicate with spoken words.
