Description
For sample adults who have felt lightheaded, without a sense of motion, AND have fallen during the past 5 years, FELARLIGHT indicates if any of the falls occurred "just before or around the time [the person was] feeling lightheaded?" A fall was defined as, "unexpectedly dropping to the floor or ground from a standing, walking or bending position."
The question for this variable occurred as part of the Sample Adult Balance Supplement, sponsored by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders.
