Inclusion Criteria

1. Language proficiency: Participants should be native Hindi speakers or individuals fluent in Hindi, as they will be required to understand and respond to the translated FFI questionnaire.

3. Foot-related condition: Include individuals who have a foot-related condition or injury that affects their foot function. This could include conditions such as plantar fasciitis, ankle sprains, or other foot-related problems.

4. Clinical diagnosis: Participants should have received a clinical diagnosis of the foot-related condition by a qualified healthcare professional. This ensures that participants have a confirmed condition that can be assessed using the FFI.

5. Willingness to participate: Participants should be willing to take part in the study and comply with the study procedures, including completing the translated FFI questionnaire and any follow-up assessments or interviews.

6. Ability to provide informed consent: Participants should have the capacity to understand the study purpose, procedures, and potential risks involved. They should be able to provide informed consent or have a legally authorized representative who can provide consent on their behalf.

Exclusion Criteria

3. Medical contraindications: Exclude individuals who have medical conditions or physical limitations that prevent them from completing the FFI questionnaire or participating in the study procedures safely. For example, individuals with severe foot deformities or amputations that significantly affect foot function may be excluded.

4. Participation in a similar study: Exclude individuals who have participated in a similar cross-cultural adaptation or translation study of the FFI questionnaire to avoid duplicating data or potential bias from prior exposure to the instrument.

5. Concurrent participation in another research study: Exclude individuals who are currently participating in another research study that may interfere with their ability to fully engage in the pilot study.

6. Inability to provide informed consent: Exclude individuals who lack the capacity to understand the purpose, risks, and procedures of the study and cannot provide informed consent, or who do not have a legally authorized representative available to provide consent on their behalf.
