Mobility = 1 reflects the boundary between ‘no problems walking around’ and ‘little trouble walking around’. Mobility = 2 reflects the boundary between ‘little trouble’ and ‘moderate trouble walking around’. Mobility = 3 reflects the boundary between ‘moderate’ and ‘severe problems walking around’.
