“…Gait efficacy is defined as an individual's perception of their level of confidence in order to perform safe walking tasks or self-efficacy of walking in a range of different settings (Newell et al, 2012).

Gait efficacy is defined as an individual’s perception of their level of confidence in order to perform safe walking tasks. Increasing older adults' gait-related self-efficacy is potentially necessary in order to promote self-regulation of physical activity and initiate the development of good physical activity habits as early prevention of disuse syndrome or inactivity in older adults.
