1. A portable terminal, comprising:
an inclination measurement unit that measures an inclination of the portable terminal; a memory; and a processor configured to use the memory and execute a process, the process comprising: detecting an inclination change that the inclination, which was measured by the inclination measurement unit, was changed a predetermined value or more; after the inclination change was detected, monitoring whether another inclination change occurs before a first time period elapses; shortening an interval by a predetermined time upon detecting that no other inclination change occurs even when the first time period elapsed; and changing a display direction of contents to be displayed on a display screen of the portable terminal according to a state of a user holding the portable terminal at intervals shortened by the shortening.
