Associations of Demographic, Functional, and Behavioral Characteristics with Activity‐Related Fear of Falling Among Older Adults Transitioning to Frailty

Abstract

Activity-related fear of falling was present in almost half of this sample of older adults transitioning to frailty. The significant association of activity-related fear of falling with demographic, functional, and behavioral characteristics emphasizes the need for multidimensional intervention strategies to lessen activity-related fear of falling in this population.
