However, the other selfcan beapproved when one finds out (constitutes) such a basis. The concept of the other self is characterized by this intangibility of the basis of the performance and observer's inevitable understanding of it, and its investigation is to consider how to constitute the model to understand such a contradictory aspect. I considert hat the aspect of appearance of animal autonomy in an observer is the very appropriate model.Then, I have constituted some behavioral experiments and suggested a methodology for ‘the science to understand the other self'. This study deeply correlates with psychology and cognitive science that investigate the origin of the mind and representation.

The bugs were placed respectively onto an annulus-shaped substrate surrounded by water. Small obstaclesw. ere introduced at regular intervals in the middle of the annulus. They moved along the edge of the water, touching the obstacles with their antennae repeatedly. Moving along the water is dangerous for them as they risk drowning. Under such a critical condition, they demonstrated an adaptive behavior : mounting the obstacles. We further investigated the time series of antennal touching time on the obstacles, which can be assumed to be related to searching of stimuli. The log-log plots of the cumulative frequency distribution of the touching times showed a power law distribution.
