- Abstract
It is currently unknown whether falling is independently associated with measures of balance and mobility in older adults after accounting for relevant physiological functions. This cross-sectional study assessed the independent association of falls-related self-efficacy to balance and mobility after accounting for age, current physical activity, and performances in relevant physiological domains in 98 older women, aged 75-86 years, with low bone mass.
