[Purpose] This study examined the influence of stair ascent-descent ability on the motor function, activity amount, and physical function of the community-dwelling elderly. [Subjects] The subjects were 37 community-dwelling elderly over the age of 65. [Methods] We divided the subjects into those who could climb and descend stairs independently and those who could not, and measured and compared their motor function, activity amounts and physical function. [Results] Compared to the group which could climb and descend stairs independently, the group which could not showed significantly lower values in the Life Space Assessment, the Fall Efficacy Scale, grip strength, continuous walking distance, subjective assessment of health, and history of falls in the last one year. [Conclusion] The results of this study suggest that the assessment of stair ascent-descent activity has potential as an early indicator of support/care needs as well as in their prevention.
