Elderly walking time of about 3.6 minutes a day (approximately 360 steps) a day (approximately 360 steps), good motor function and depression

Based on a joint research agreement concluded between the Japan Geriatric Evaluation and Research Organization (JAGES Organization) and Yokohama City on September 1, 2016, participation in the Yokohama Walking Point Project will affect motor function and depression. As a result of verifying the impact, it was revealed that the Yokohama Walking Point Business was effective in increasing walking time of participating elderly people, preventing motor function decline, and suppressing depression. This study is the first study to examine the effects of the Yokohama Walking Point Project, combining the background factors of the participating and non-participating groups.
