Abstract Background Conflicting results have been reported regarding the relationship between stride time variability STV and walking speed. While some studies failed to establish any relationship others reported either a linear or a non-linear relationship. We therefore sought to determine the extent to which decrease in self-selected walking speed influenced STV among healthy young adults. Methods The mean value the standard deviation and
