Researchers in the kinesiology department are seeking participants for a study of high-heeled shoe design, in particular how different shoes change how you move. Participants will be asked to complete one visit to the lab. You will be asked to walk and stand in several different shoes while researchers measure how you walk, the activity of your muscles and the pressure pattern under your foot. You will also be asked to complete questionnaires about your general health.
