Abstract: In this article, we examine the capability, functionings, and utilization abilities of moving out/staying home behaviors. The data are obtained from individual panel surveys of following individuals : (a) individuals with disabilities, (b) individuals under support / care, and (c) individuals over 65 years old and living in a suburb municipality in Japan. First, we normatively characterize the aggregation methodology for the capability and utilization abilities. Second, the vector distance-based utilitarian evaluation rule shows that, the capability of individuals pertaining to (a) and (b), is more damaged than that of individuals pertaining to (c). Additionally, the multidimensional aggregation methodology reveals that, certain capability damages may originate from the deprivation of utilization abilities.
