Abstract

The purpose of this study was to privide basic data for footwear development according to walking mechanics by comparing gait cycle difference between barefoot walking and walking shoes. The walking period was measured in 30 normal adult women with no foot deformity and abnormality. The first subject walked in sneakers and measured the cycle. And then, the subjects walked barefoot and the period was measured to obtain data. The data were taken form corresponding paired T-test. The results were as follows: In barefoot walking, the stance phase left side(p <.001), right side(p <.005), the loading response left side(p <.009), right side(p <.002) ), the pre-swing left side(p <.002), right side (p <.011), the double stance phase(p <.004) were increased and the mid-stance left side (p <.016), right side(p. 001), the swing phase left side(p<.001) was decreased. This suggests that barefoot walking increases the input of various senses of the foot, which makes stable walking possible. It is necessary to improve shoes based on the walking cycle in the future.

본 연구는 맨발 보행과 운동화 착용 보행에서 보행주기의 차이를 비교하여 보행역학에 따른 신발 개발에 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 발의 변형과 이상이 없는 정상 성인 여성 30명을 대상으로 보행 주기를 측정하였다. 먼저 운동화를 착용하고 보행하여 주기를 측정한 후, 맨발로 보행하여 주기를 측정하여 데이터를 얻었다. 이후 두 데이터를 대응표본 T-test를 이용하여 비교하였다. 실험 결과 맨발 보행에서 입각기 좌측(p<.001), 우측(p<.005), 체중부하기 좌측(p<.009), 우측(p<.002), 전유각기 좌측(p<.002), 우측(p<.011), 양하지 지지기(p<.004)가 증가하였고, 중간 입각기 좌측(p<.016), 우측(p<.001), 유각기 좌측(p<.001)이 감소하였다. 이는 맨발 보행이 다양한 발의 감각의 입력을 증가시켜 보행안정성이 높은 보행이 가능해 졌다고 보여 지며, 향후 보행 주기에 의거하여 맨발보행과 가까운 신발 개량이 필요하다고 사료된다. 향후 신발의 개량을 위해 신발 종류에 따른 보행주기 연구가 필요할 것이다.
