Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to determine the validity of a self-questionnaire detecting seniors phobia of falling living at home. A prospective monocentric observational study compares in a blind way the presence of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders fourth edition (DSM-IV) criteria for specific phobia, considered as the gold standard to the score obtained at the detecting questionnaire for ≥70 years old seniors suspected of phobia of falling and attending geriatric day hospital at the Bretonneau hospital (APHP, Paris).
