Classified Fell Did not fall Total
High riskb 30.3% 18.5% 48.9%
Low risk 16.4% 34.8% 51.1%

Total 46.7% 53.3% 100%

Sensitivity = .65 Specificity = .65 PPV = .62 NPV = .68

Notes:

a

Predicted probabilities from logistic regression of any fall over four follow-up waves on STEADI fall risk category and age, gender, race/ethnicity, and education.

b

Predicted probability of falling ≥ .5

PPV: positive predictive value; NPV: negative predictive value
