Abstract
In expressive body movement created by one person and his/her partner, a sense of nonseparation, as if one’s body and his/her partner’s body are united, is experienced. For such a relationship between the two, a process to feel passiveness and activeness physically is important. The objective of this study is to capture passiveness and activeness in bodily interaction. We focused on myoelectric (ME) potential from which time of generation and amplitude differ in voluntary and reaction movements. A measurement system was developed using ME potential in bodily interaction. This technique was validated by our data.
