- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method umber of supination resistance arch blocks required to supinate the foot from RCSP to NCSP.<br><br>Collected data will be analysed using the SPSS software. To determine the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the ‘arch blocks’ test, the Intra-class Correlation Coefficient with a confidence interval of 95% will be used.[Upon completion of each round of Supination Resistance Arch Blocks test.]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Relationship between the number of supination resistance arch blocks required to supinate the foot from RCSP to NCSP and the amount of force required to supinate the foot manually.<br><br>The Pearson correlation coefficient will be used to determine the relationship between the Supination Resistance Arch Blocks test and manual supination resistance test.[Upon completion of data collection.]
