 A Japanese word Tojikomori is the elderly who are housebound-inactive but have enough mobility level. Tojikomerare is the elderly who are housebound-inactive elderly because of their low mobility.

Nurses conducted home interviews at Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture in Japan, in 1998 as baseline and 1999 as follow-up, and evaluated physical function and psychosocial characteristics of disabled elderly. Results obtained were as follows :

 In one year, the physical and psychosocial changes among Tojikomori and Tojikomerare were specified.
