Masking approaches to analyse plantar pressure data of new and confident walking infants (2023)
Journal Article
Montagnani, E., Morrison, S., & Price, C. (2023). Masking approaches to analyse plantar pressure data of new and confident walking infants. Gait & Posture, 102, 93-99. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2023.03.006

Background Due to its easy and straightforward use, regional analysis with the “standard” mask is the most common approach for quantifying plantar pressures in infancy. Such a mask, however, identifies foot regions based on typical foot proportions... Read More about Masking approaches to analyse plantar pressure data of new and confident walking infants.

Their validity and reliability across different pressures, durations of load and contact areas... Read More about Validity and reliability of the XSENSOR in-shoe pressure measurement system.

Searching for online information on the fit of children’s footwear during the COVID-19 pandemic: an analysis of Google Trends data (2023)
Journal Article
pandemic: an analysis of Google Trends data. Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 16(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/s13047-022-00598-5

Background Selecting footwear with appropriate fit in children is challenging due the changes with foot size and dimensions which occur throughout childhood. Access to appropriate footwear is important but recent challenges with the COVID-19 pandemi...

What happens to babies’ feet when they are learning to walk? (2023)
Journal Article
Price, C., & Morrison, S. (2023). What happens to babies’ feet when they are learning to walk?. Frontiers for Young Minds, https://doi.org/10.3389/frym.2022.968225

Learning to walk is complicated and starts when we are very young. It takes lots of practice and typically begins with just a few steps. We conducted an experiment to understand more about what happens to babies’ feet when they first start walking. I... Read More about What happens to babies’ feet when they are learning to walk?.

Validation of the RunScribe Inertial Measurement Unit for walking gait measurement (2022)
Journal Article

Intro: The use of portable gait measurement systems in research is appealing to collect real-world data at low-cost, low participant burden, and without requirement for dedicated lab space. Most commercially available inertial measurement units (IMU’... Read More about Validation of the RunScribe Inertial Measurement Unit for walking gait measurement.

Longitudinal study of foot pressures during real-world walking as infants develop from new to confident walkers (2021)
Journal Article
Price, C., Montagnani, E., Martinez Santos, A., Nester, C., & Morrison, S. (2022). Longitudinal study of foot pressures during real-world walking as infants develop from new to confident walkers. Gait & Posture, 92, 351-358. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2021.12.003

Background: Onset of walking in infants leads to regular cyclic loading of the plantar foot surface for the first time. This is a critical period for evolving motor skills and foot structure and function. Plantar pressure literature typically studi...
