The purposes of this project to examine whether older adults can learn safe landing strategy during a fall. The research hypotheses are three-fold: 1) To determine whether older adults can learn a safe landing strategy to reduce impact severity of falling; 2) To examine whether the training effect on the right side falls can be transferred to the left side falls; and 3) To examine 1-week and 3-month retention effect of fall strategy training in older adults.
