Four kinds of equilibrium function tests, including rail test, twice step-rotating test, walking test with eyes closed and one foot standing test in foreward tilt with eyes opened, had been carried in 3434 boys and 3130 girls of seven primary schools and five secondary schools in Kanagawa Prefecture in Japan from 1975 to 1977.The mean values and their standard deviations of the test results were obtained. The normal limits that include the values measured in 90 per cent of normal subjects were as follows; 30 seconds duration in one foot standing, score of 12 (about 2/3 of full rail length) inrail test, 130cm deviation in walking test and rotating angle of ±135 degrees and deviation of 25cm in twice step-rotating test.The relationship between test scores and the other factors, such as sex, the grade of school, was also studied from coefficients of correlation calculated by a computer.It was assumed that all of four examinations might have significant usefulness to examine the equilibrium function in boys and girls.
