Presents the case of a man (aged 84 yrs) who had suffered a stroke without neurologic residual and had been referred to a geriatric assessment center because of decreased activity and increased dependence on his daughter. It was determined that fear of falling was a major contributor to the S's decline. A multidisciplinary treatment plan was initiated. An activity prescription was developed in which the S gradually became independent in his basic activities of daily living. His daughter agreed not to aid with those activities she felt he could do on his own. The Falls Efficacy Scale is discussed in terms of its definition of fear as low perceived self-confidence at avoiding falls during relatively nonhazardous activities. Clinical intervention is examined in terms of the multifaceted approach used with the S. It is concluded that the concept of self-efficacy helps guide preventive and treatment strategies.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
