Objetiva-se identificar o suposto medo de cair, ao realizar atividades da vida diária, em um grupo de idosos. A abordagem foi descritiva, por meio de um estudo transversal, com a utilização da versão brasileira do questionário traduzido por Camargos (2007). Foram entrevistados 20 idosos com 60 anos ou mais, moradores do bairro de Butantã, na cidade de São Paulo (SP). Como resultados, pôde-se verificar que, por mostrarem receio de cair, a maioria dos idosos evitam realizar certas atividades de sua vida diária (AVD), dentre outras decorrências.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-06-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/ziphttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/957010.23925/2176-901X.2012v15i3p57-66Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 15 n. 3 (2012); 57-662176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/9570/11430https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/9570/35932Galimberti, Jacqueline ZanattaAlmeida, Cristina Maria Simão de Camargo deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2025-07-11T12:49:19Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/9570Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2025-07-11T12:49:19Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
