Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In the field of assistance activities, much attention has been focused on the motion of care-givers. In contrast, little attention has been given to how care-receivers feel and think during receiving assistance. This study aimed to analyze the factors of good assistance from the viewpoint of care-receiver, and to get suggestions for proficient assistance. The participant was a 40-year old female subject diagnosed as progressive muscular dystrophy. She received 24 hours home care services by multiple care-givers. We conducted a semi-structured interview with her, and categorized what she talked in the interview. As a result, the factors of good assistance evaluated by care-receiver were but only care-giver’s physical capability but also the attitudes that a care-giver treats care-receiver not as an object but as a person, that a care-giver has the sense of unity between him/her and care-receiver, and that he/she pays enough attention to the body perception during the caregiving. This result suggests that not only the motor ability (i.e., quality of body movement) of the care-giver, but also the perceptual and imagination ability (i.e., ability to realize the care receiver’s state, perception and feeling) and motor planning ability to achieve the caregiving suitable for individual care receivers determines the quality of the assistance activities.
