Uncertainty when walking and fear of falling are among the most common problems experienced by older people, limiting many individuals in their daily lives. Walking together can have a positive effect on gait stability and complexity.
In this project, we are investigating whether regular training in an interpersonal walking task has positive effects on a) the task itself, b) general gait parameters, and c) solo walking with an additional task. Data collection will take place from November 2025 to January 2026. During your thesis, you will gain experience in laboratory research with older adults and empirical data analysis."
