Do Differences in Spatiotemporal Gait Parameters Predict the Risk of Developing Depression in Later Life?

There is growing interest in the association between gait disturbance and depression in later life. The aim of this study is to clarify the longitudinal relationship between specific gait parameters and incident depression within a population‐representative sample of older people.
