This study attempts to expand the concept of "development", from the perspective of "different age group coupling" by analyzing characteristics of relationships between individuals, formed within practices such as child care, child rearing, school education, Ibasho (local settlement), camping activities for children and young people with developmental disabilities, etc.
Our findings reveal that a distinctive pattern of events, such as developmental differences in participants are mutually supported. In addition, attachment of meaning to one’s language and behavior that occurs in general situations, the cyclical relation between support provider and recipient of support, the development of new values through the problem-solving process of impromptu situations, etc., emerges within the activities involving individuals of different age groups and generations.
