  1. aParent-reported Oxford Ankle Foot Questionnaire for Children (OxAFQ-C) domain scores were based on n = 49 due to missing data.
  2. bAnalysis performed on transformed data. Results presented in antilog.
  3. cThe p values for the univariate association between dichotomous scaled variables and the OxAFQ-C Emotional domain and Footwear item scores were determined using the Mann–Whitney U Test for each variable.
  4. dCondition: male minus female.
  5. eCondition: presence minus absence.
