Table 2 Foot arch indices of the participants.
| Control Group | Squash Group | P value1 | P value2 | P value3 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Left foot | 0.22±0.05 | 0.21±0.06 | 0.100 | 0.632 | 0.706 |
| Right foot | 0.23±0.04 | 0.22±0.06 | 0.091 | – | – |
| The static foot arch indices (FAI) of both feet are represented as mean±SD. Statistical significances of values were determined by the independent sample test between both groups. Statistical significances of values were determined by the independent sample test between the control (n=33) and squash group (n=26). values was determined between the feet within the control group, and values was determined between the feet within the squash group. | |||||
