Note. FES-S = Falls Efficacy Scale- Swedish version, FES-S-W = Falls Efficacy Scale-Swedish version-Working age, SPPB = Short Physical Performance Battery, SPPB-W = Short Physical Performance Battery-Working age, P = p-value, bold figures indicate a significant value ≤ 0.05. Higher score on the measurements represent better performance.
