본 연구의 목적은 젊은 여성을 대상으로 구두 굽 높이에 따라 한다리 서기 자세를 수행하는 동안 배곧은근, 척추세움근, 넙다리곧은근, 뒤넙다리근의 근활성도를 비교하기 위해 연구를 실시하였다. 본 연구는 건강한 20대 여성 20명을 대상으로 0cm, 3cm, 7cm 의 각각 다른 높이의 굽이 있는 구두를 착용하고 안정한 지지면 위에서 정적 균형검사 중 하나인 오른쪽 다리로 한다리 서기를 하는 동안 표면 근전도 장비를 이용하여 오른쪽 배곧은근, 척추세움근, 넙다리곧은근, 뒤넙다리근의 근활성도를 측정하여 비교 분석하였으며 연구 결과 척추세움근과 넙다리곧은근의 근활성도는 굽높이가 증가함에 따라 유의한 증가가 있었고(p<0.05), 배곧은근, 뒤넙다리근의 근활성도는 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 구두 굽 높이의 증가는 척추세움근 및 넙다리곧은근의 근활성도를 증가시키며 이로 인한 허리 앞굽음과 골반의 앞쪽 기울임 증가는 신체분절의 위치나 무게 중심의 변화를 일으켜 허리 골반 부위 및 엉덩관절, 무릎관절에 근골격계 통증과 같은 문제를 일으킬 수 있을 것이다.

This study is to investigate the relationships between heel height and macro-economic factors - recession and unemployment; and to analyze the time lags reflecting economic factors on heel height index using U.S. data. The life-history evolution theory was applied to propose the relationships studied. The data for the heel height measurements of women's shoes - pump style only - were obtained from US Vogue fashion editorial sections on spring and fall editions from 1950 to 2014. I divided the heel height by the length of the shoes in order to standardize the data. Total of 1581 samples were used, and heel height data were aggregated to create a yearly average. To explore the relationships between macro-economic factors and heel height, this study used OLS of Stata 13 program. The main findings show that unemployment rates influenced heel height for three years in a positive direction. Furthermore, the effects of unemployment rate from two years ago on the current heel height were very close to being on a significant level.

The objectives of this study were to investigate whether heel height changes in the U.S. market occur in a cyclical pattern and heel heights show greater within-year variability over time. Heel height data from U.S. Vogue's spring and fall editions were analyzed over the time period 1950~2014. A total of 1581 pieces of data were measured in millimeter units using Adobe Illustrator and standardized by dividing the height of the heel by the shoe length through the curved sole line. To analyze the cycle pattern of heel heights, the yearly averages were standardized by using three-year moving average technique to average out the irregular components of time series data and give a better indication of the long-term fluctuation of heel height. To identify the degree of within-year variability of heel height, the standard deviation of the average measurements for a year was calculated, and then decade averages were drawn from the yearly averaged standard deviation. One-way ANOVA was conducted to compare the within-year variability of data in heel height over the time period studied by decade. The results showed: First, there was a trend toward higher heels from the early 1950s to 2011. Second, four cyclical movements of heel height were observed from 1950 to 2007, and heel heights gradually decreased after 2008. Third, the within-year variability significantly increased over time, especially after the 1980s.

The present study has been undertaken to assess the electrical activity of right tibialis anterior, right gastrocnemius, right rectus femoris, right biceps femoris and right paralumbarvertebral muscles quantitatively by EMC while standing erect on the height of 0cm, 3cm, 5cm and 7cm heels. The inclinations of the heels were 0, 6, 11, 17 degrees, respectively. Foully young women ranging from 18 to 24 of age were examined. Electrical activity of various muscles while standing erect on the height of various heels were compared with that of 0cm heel. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Electrical activity of the tibialis anterior increased significantly as the height of heels became higher ; which was thought to be due to the effort to counteract the instability standing with high heels. 2. There was a significant increase in electrical activity of the gastrocnemius as the height of heels increased. It might be due to compensatory activity against shifting of the center of gravity forward. 3. There was a significant increase .in electrical activity of the rectus femoris and biceps femoris at the height of 3cm, 5cm and 7cm heels ; which seemed to be due to the effort to stabilize the knee joint. 4. Electrical activity of the paralumbarvertebral muscles increased significantly at the height of 5cm and 7cm heels ; which was considered to be due to the effort to prevent forward imbalance. From These results, it may be concluded that electrical activities of various postural muscles increase significantly while standing erect on the height of 3cm, 5cm and 7cm heels to counteract an instability of their posture and compensate the forward shifting tendency of the center of gravity.

본 연구는 발 불편감에 영향을 주는 변인을 추출하여, 불편감을 최소화시킬 수 있으며 발의 불편감에 영향을 주는 변인을 찾기 위하여 수도권에 거주하는 성인 여성 216명을 대상으로 일반적인 사항(연령, 체중, 신장, 직업), 구두특성(굽 높이, 토우모양, 착용시간), 보행습관, 발 불편감은 설문조사를 실시 하고, 족자압을 측정 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 발 불편부위는 엄지발가락, 2·3 중족골두, 그리고 새끼발가락 순으로 불편을 많이 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 발의 불편감에서 요인분석 결과 전신 불편감(요인 1.), 발바닥 불편감(요인 2), 그리고 발가락 불편감(요인 3)의 세 요인으로 분류되었다. 2. 연령이 많아질수록 발바닥에 불편감이 많이 나타났으며, 직업에 따라서 전신과 발바닥에 분편감에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 학생과 회사원의 경우는 전신, 판매직과 주부의 경우는 발바닥 부위에 불편감이 많다고 하였다. 굽 높이가 높을수록 발바닥 부위에 불편감, 토우모양은 발가락부위에 불편감, 그리고 착용시간이 길수록 발바닥 부위에 불편감이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 보행특성과 관련해 분석한 결과는 체중이 앞으로 쏠린 상태에서 보행하는 습관은 전신, 발가락 그리고 발바닥 부위에 불편감과 유의한 상관관계를 보이고 있었다. 그 중에서 전신 불편감이 상대적으로 높은 상관관계를 보이고 있다. 접지시간과 발바닥 불편감은 역 상관관계가 있는 것으로, 최대압력은 발가락 불편감과 상관관계가 약하게 존재하는 것으로 나타났다.

Objective : To purpose of this study was the most of the ladies wear high-heeled shoes at lease 4 to 5 day a week but the effect of it's height on the lumbo-sacral legion angle has not been clearly defined. Method : Subject were 20 young ladies, who had majored in physical therapy of the Dae-gu Health College. Method 1. PACS system X-ray was used to measure the lumbo-sacral legion angle under the condition of bare foot, 3cm, 7cm high-heeled at standing position. 2. Spinal Mouse was used to measure the spinal segment motion angle and length under the condition of bare foot, 3cm, 7cm high-heeled at being Flexion-Extension position Result : The result of this study were as follow I. Significant statistical increase in lumbar lordosis was observed as the heel height was increased from bare foot to 7cm high-heeled(p<.05), but there was no significant difference in the lumbo-sacral angle & sacral angle(p>.05). 2. The Height and the weight of the subjects, their preference on the shoes didn't affect the lumbo-sacral lesion angle(p>.05) 3. The variation of the heel height didn't affect the spinal segment motion angle and length(p>.05). Conclusion : There is strong relationship between the high of heel with increasing the lumbar lordosis(p<.05).
