Due to the dynamics of developmental changes, the preschool age is of crucial importance for the later health and efficiency of the feet. The aim of this study was the analysis of the fitting of indoor footwear and its impact on the features of the foot structure in 6-year-old children.
The study group consisted of 100 children, including 50 girls and 50 boys at the age of 6 years. The applied device was the CQ-ST podoscope and the Clevermess. The data were analyzed based on Mann-Whitney test, Chi-square test and regression analysis.
About 60% of children wore correctly fitted shoes in terms of length and width. Multiple regression models with two variables explaining the variance of the Clarke's angle were statistically significant for girls (right foot: < 0.001 and left foot: = 0.009), and boys (right foot: < 0.001 and left foot: < 0.001). The influence of predictive variables on the values of the heel angle () was statistically significant for girls (right foot: < 0.001 and left foot: < 0.001) and boys (right foot < 0.001 and left foot: < 0.001).
Both in the case of girls and boys, the frequency of using too long and too wide shoes was higher in relation to the frequency of using too short and too narrow shoes. The length and width of the shoes affected the length and width of the footwear both in girls and boys. The longer and wider the shoes, the lower the height of the arch. Longer shoes are accompanied by a greater transverse arch, and wider ones with a lower transverse arch of the foot.
由于发育变化的动态性，学龄前对足部后期的健康和效率至关重要。本研究的目的是分析室内鞋的适配性及其对 6 岁儿童足部结构特征的影响。
研究组包括 100 名 6 岁儿童，其中女孩 50 名，男孩 50 名。应用的设备是 CQ-ST 足印仪和 Clevermess。数据分析采用 Mann-Whitney U 检验、卡方检验和回归分析。
大约 60%的儿童在鞋的长度和宽度方面穿着合适。对于女孩（右脚：<0.001，左脚：=0.009）和男孩（右脚：<0.001，左脚：<0.001），两个变量解释 Clarke 角方差的多元回归模型具有统计学意义。对于女孩（右脚：<0.001，左脚：<0.001）和男孩（右脚：<0.001，左脚：<0.001），预测变量对足跟角（）值的影响具有统计学意义。
对于女孩和男孩，穿太长太宽的鞋的频率高于穿太短太窄的鞋的频率。鞋的长度和宽度都会影响女孩和男孩的鞋的长度和宽度。鞋子越长越宽，足弓越低。较长的鞋子伴随着较低的横弓，而较宽的鞋子则伴随着较低的足弓。
