Preferred: Our research is a community-based program that delivers fall risk screening to senior centers within a 30-minute driving radius from UCF. We are looking for students willing to travel to these community centers to work directly with participants by assisting with data collections, as well as students to help with remote data entry. Data collection will involve administering questionnaires and physical function and cognitive assessments. Required: 3-hour windows of availability during the week.

Description
This project aims to determine which component(s) of the 8-week Physiofeedback Exercise Program (PEER) is most effective in improving physical activity levels in community-dwelling older adults. The PEER is comprised of three components: physiofeedback, cognitive reframing, and group exercise, and each group will receive a random combination of these three components. This longitudinal study will involve multiple visits (baseline, post-intervention, 6-month follow-up, 12-month follow-up) over a 15-month time period.
