Brief Summary:
Postural deformity and postural instability that occur with aging are risk factors for falling.
In the literature, there are many scales that evaluate balance and functional performance in older adults. However there is no validity and reliability study of Dubousset Function Test developed to evaluate balance and functional performance of older adults. For this reason, the aim of study is to examine the validity and reliability of Dubousset Function Test in older adults.

Detailed Description:
However, postural deformity and postural instability that occur with aging are risk factors for falling. In studies examining the relationship between postural instability and spinal curvatures, it was stated that the balance and functional performance of patients with increased kyphosis were affected. Increased thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis loss in geriatric individuals, degenerative spinal deformities are common and functional limitations lead to negative clinical consequences such as an increase in the risk of falls or fractures and impaired quality of life.
Dubousset Functional Test (DFT); A conceptually practical four-component assessment test has been proposed by Dr. Jean Dubousset to assess the functional capacity of adult individuals. The validity of the test was made in individuals with spinal deformity. DFT; It consists of four components: getting up from a chair without arms and walking 5 meters forward and backward, descending and climbing steps, transition from standing to sitting on the ground, and the dual task test in which the individual walks while counting down from 50 at the same time.
