Fall prevention behaviors: A significant
improvement in overall fall prevention behaviors was
found after elders completed the fall prevention
program (t = 8.255; p ≤ .001).
Physical performance: The elders demonstrated
a significant improvement, after program completion,
in lower body strength, balance, and balance and gait
(i.e., “five times sit to stand” [Z = 4.517; p ≤ .001];
“turn 360 degrees” [Z = 3.097; p ≤ .01]; and,
“timed up & go” [Z = 4.509; p ≤ .001)
