Developmental phase



Assessment

Primary outcomes

Changes in physical function and ankle joint position sense before and after participation in the health promotion program. Physical function will be assessed using the 30-second Chair Stand Test (CS-30), 10-m walking test at comfortable and maximum speeds, handgrip strength, and the Timed Up and Go test (TUG). Somatosensory function will be assessed using ankle joint position sense.

Key secondary outcomes

Secondary outcomes include toe grip strength, body composition, Life-Space Assessment (LSA), the 8-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-8), the Kihon Checklist (KCL), center of pressure (COP) measures, estimation errors of physical ability assessed using the Functional Reach Test (FRT) and the Two-Step Test, obstacle-crossing performance, and cognitive function assessed using the Japanese version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-J).
