Popis: Background This study developed a Thai version of the Identification of Functional Ankle Instability (IdFAI-THAI) questionnaire. Methods To determine construct validity, 200 participants with a history of lateral ankle sprain completed the IdFAI-THAI, the Modified Thai Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS), the Visual Analog Scale of Instability (VAS-I), and the Thai Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM). Eight days later, 100 randomly selected participants refilled the IdFAI-THAI to assess test-retest reliability and internal consistency. Results The IdFAI-THAI moderate correlated with the LEFS (rs = −0.62), the VAS-I (rs = 0.62), and the FAAM (rs = −0.63 and −0.69 for the activities of daily living and sports subscales, respectively). The IdFAI-THAI had good test-retest reliability (ICC2,1 = 0.89) and excellent internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.94). Ceiling and floor effects were absent. Conclusion The valid and reliable IdFAI-THAI can identify chronic ankle instability among Thai speakers in clinical and research settings.
