Brief Summary

This study aimed to translate the Ankle Instability Instrument into Turkish language, to perform a cultural adaptation study and to evaluate its validity and reliability in the Turkish population. Ankle Instability Instrument was developed to determine the ankle instability level of individuals with a history of ankle injury. Assessment of ankle instability is particularly useful in determining the complaints and functional levels of individuals with a history of functional or chronic ankle instability. It is anticipated that introducing this scale to our language will contribute to other studies in this field.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Ankle Instability Instrument

  The Ankle Instability Instrument includes 9 questions that can be answered with yes or no. The first version was developed with 21 questions and later modified into 9 questions. The Ankle Instability Instrument determines the development of functional ankle instability in individuals with an ankle injury. The International Ankle Consortium reported that answering yes to 5 of 9 questions will confirm the presence of functional ankle instability. There are French and Iran versions of the Ankle Instability Instrument.

  2 weeks

• Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool

  The ankle instability levels of the participants included in the study will be determined by the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool. The Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool is a self-assessment scale that determines the presence of functional or chronic ankle instability and the severity of the instability. This scale consists of 9 items and the total score varies between 0 and 30. Lower scores indicate more severe instability.
