Özet

Aim: To examine the effect of foot anthropometric measurements and body sizes of young maleadults with normal posture on balance.Methods: In this study, the effect of body size and foot anthropometric measurements of 112 youngmale adults with normal posture on balance was investigated. The foot and body parameters of thecases were measured. The static and the dynamic balance tests were evaluated according to thedominant foot in each case. The parameters that affected balance were determined and the variableswere taken to the model. In addition, the significance levels that defined the effects of the propertiesexamined in relation with the balance were also calculated.Results: When the findings were evaluated, it was determined that the effect of the foot parametersother than the foot length, and the effect of 15 body parameters other than the biiliac diameter,trochanteric height, and right upper extremity length on balance performance was significant. Thebalance test performance was predicted with success ranging from 7.8% to 43% with the parametersincluded in the model.Conclusion: In this study, the fact that the relation between the foot anthropometric and bodydimensions and functional balance performances of young male adults was found to be significantshows that this relation must be considered in the creation of a normative database on balance, and inclinical studies that will be conducted on the subject.
