An apparatus for calculating an initial correction coefficient for correcting rotational angular velocities obtained from outputs of rotational angular velocity detecting means. The apparatus includes a judged value calculating means which calculates a judged value on the basis of the rotational angular velocities; an identifying means which identifies whether the vehicle is performing turning movements at high velocity, straight-ahead running or turning movements at mid/low velocity; and an initial correction coefficient calculating means which obtains an initial correction coefficient when it has been identified by the identifying means that the vehicle is performing straight-ahead running or turning movements at mid/low velocity. It is possible to obtain accurate correction coefficients so that it is possible to accurately detect, for instance, a decrease in tire air-pressure and thus to maintain safe running.
