Fear of Falling Phenomenology Study

By Carol J Bostic

Fear of falling (FoF) has been extensively studied in aging populations, due to the high prevalence of both falling and FoF in older adults. Research has identified a number of biological, psychological, and social/environmental factors related to the development of FoF. Research has yet to explore how FoF impacts the daily lives of caregiver and care recipient dyads along biological, psychological, and social/environmental domains.

Existing literature also fails to provide clinicians, and in particular physical therapists, with considerations for the evaluation and clinical interviewing process for individuals seeking care related to FoF.
