This study compared the gait parameters of young women using various methods to carry a single-strap bag during walking. Twenty-one Korean healthy women walked on a GAITRite-instrumented carpet at a self-paced speed for each of the four following conditions in random order: no bag, carrying a bag over the shoulder, carrying a bag on the forearm, and carrying a bag by the hand on the dominant (right) side. There was a significant reduction in the stride length for the contralateral leg when carrying a bag on the forearm, a significant decrease in the heel-to-heel base of support, and a significant increase in the toe angle on the ipsilateral leg when carrying a bag by hand. The results of our study suggest that, among the asymmetric bag-carrying methods preferred by Korean young women during walking, the "over-the-shoulder" method has the least effect on gait parameters relative to not carrying a bag.
本研究比较了 21 名韩国健康女性在四种不同背包方式（无包、单肩背包、手臂挎包、右手提包）下行走时的步态参数。参与者在 GAITRite 步态分析毯上以自然步速行走，四种方式随机排列，每种方式行走三次。结果发现，手臂挎包会显著降低对侧步长，减小脚跟到脚跟的支撑基础，增加同侧足尖角度；而与不背包相比，韩国年轻女性偏好的其他两种不对称背包方式（单肩背包和右手提包）对步态参数的影响最小。
