The dependent variable was assessed by the Falls Efficacy Scale - International - Brazil and the explanatory variables by questionnaire and validated instruments. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were performed, as well as the Poisson multiple regression model. Results: the prevalence of fear of falling was 65%. The factors associated with the dependent variable were depressive symptoms plus polypharmacy use and social group attendance. Conclusion: the prevalence found of fear of falling was high. There was an association of the outcome with the interaction of polypharmacy and depressive symptoms and the variable frequent social group presented as a protective factor.
