STEERING CONTROL DEVICE

A processor is configured to execute reaction force setting processing, reaction force application processing, axial force gradient calculation processing, and interlock processing. The reaction force setting processing is processing of setting steering reaction force using phase compensation processing. The reaction force application processing is processing of operating a reaction force motor with reaction force set by the reaction force setting processing as input. The axial force gradient calculation processing is processing for calculating an axial force gradient as a variable indicating the ratio of the change in resisting force against rotation of the steering shaft to the change in rotation angle of the steering shaft. The interlocking processing is processing of changing one of both the value of a phase compensation regulation variable as a variable for regulating a manner of the phase compensation and the axial force gradient according to the other.
