Abstract:AimThis study aimed to calculate the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for a modified Gait Efficacy Scale (mGES) over 3 years and to clarify the predictors of mGES decline.MethodsIn total, 87 community‐dwelling older adults were enrolled in this 3‐year longitudinal study. The mGES, fall history and physical function (chair stand frequency, open‐eyes one‐leg stand, open–close stepping test, walking speed, walking endurance [shuttle stamina walk test] and physical activity) were assessed at baseline… Show more
