Cutaneous Sensitivity Across Regions of the Foot Sole and Dorsum are Influenced by Foot Posture [PDF]
Understanding the processing of tactile information is crucial for the development of biofeedback interventions that target cutaneous mechanoreceptors. Mechanics of the skin have been shown to influence cutaneous tactile sensitivity.

Correlating foot posture with foot mobility using a high-accuracy foot measurement system
The Foot Posture Index (FPI) has in recent years become one of the most useful foot posture assessment tools due to its proven high reliability and validity. The main advantage of the FPI over other foot posture assessment techniques is the ability to provide a multi-segment analysis of the foot from six different foot components.

Reliability of the Modified Foot Posture Index
Background: The Foot Posture Index (FPI) has been advocated as a simple and convenient tool to assess static foot posture in a clinical setting. Although published studies have indicated that the FPI has good intrarater reliability and moderate interrater reliability, these studies were conducted on a previous ...

The limitations of clinical methods for appraising foot posture are well documented. A new measure, the Foot Posture Index is proposed, and its development and validation described.A four-phase development process was used: (i) to derive a series of candidate measures, (ii) to define an appropriate scoring system, (iii) to evaluate the validity of ...
