However the validity of static assessment to provide insight into dynamic function in individuals with PFPS is unclear. This study was designed to evaluate the extent to which a static foot posture measurement tool the Foot Posture Index - FPI can provide insight into kinematic variables associated with foot pronation during level walking in individuals with PFPS and asymptomatic controls. Methods Twenty-six individuals 5 males 21 females with PFPS aged years and 20 control participants 4 males 16 females aged years were recruited into the study. Each participant underwent clinical evaluation of the FPI and kinematic analysis of the rearfoot and forefoot during walking using a three-dimensional motion analysis system. The association of the FPI score with rearfoot eversion forefoot dorsiflexion and forefoot abduction kinematic variables magnitude timing of peak and range of motion were evaluated using partial correlation coefficient statistics with gait velocity entered as a covariate. Results A more pronated foot type as measured by the .
