Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Foot posture assesment
Foot Posture Index 6 and navicular drop will be used for assesing the foot pronation.
Foot muscle strentgh assesment
Toe muscle strength will be assessed through the utilization of a handheld dynamometer.
Performance and dynamic balance assesment
Front jump test and star excursion balance test will be performed by participants.
3D gait analysis
The kinetic/kinematic analysis of the foot and the lower extremity will be conducted using a motion capture system, specifically employing the Oxford Foot Model and the Plug-in Gait Model.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Functional assesment
The Oxford Ankle Foot Questionnaire for Children (OxAFQ-C) will be utilized for function-related aspect.
Quality of life assesment
Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) will be utilized for the assessment of participants' quality of life status.
