Abstract: Action occurrence in regard to strolling behavior has been analyzed from a new point of view, i.e. Act-finding. Act-finding is a phenomenon which one searches next acts in ad hoc conditions. Some types of actions are as follows: Eyes action includes 'gaze', 'look around' and 'look back'. Walking action includes 'wind', 'turn', 'return', 'accelerate', 'slowdown' and 'stop'. The total of recorded actions is 782. Eyes action is 421(53.8%) and walking action is 361(46.2%). The sum of the frequency until 15 seconds occupies 581 (74.3%) and until 30 seconds occupies 702 (89.8%). The frequency of actions decreases rapidly until 10 seconds. The relation between the interval time of actions and the number of times is fractal (the fractal dimension is 1.07). The occurrence of eyes action shows linear-like decrease and that of walking action shows logarithm-like decrease as much as the interval time gets long.
