Abstract
A walking posture determination apparatus correlates detected acceleration of a subject with walking posture. The apparatus stores an association between walking posture levels and values of an index that represents walking posture, calculates the index value by using acceleration that is detected by an acceleration sensor, and determines the walking posture level based on the calculated index value.
