【 摘 要 】

There are conflicting results with respect to the validity and reliability of lower extremity strength measurements using a hand-held dynamometer (HHD) in the healthy population. Previous studies exploring foot inversion and eversion strength using a HHD were carried out with predominantly clinically affected participants in different positions. The question arises whether HHD measurements of isometric foot inversion and eversion strength performed with participants in different positions are valid, reliable and comparable and can be used alternatively.
