Recently a study illustrated the singular use of any of the most frequently utilized questionnaires failed to significantly predict ankle stability status. Therefore, the purpose of this article was to present information related to the development of the Identification of Functional Ankle Instability (IdFAI). Methods: Volunteers ( n = 278; 125 males, 153 females, 19.8 \u00b1 1.4 years) completed the IdFAI on one occasion. An exploratory factor analysis was conducted with principal axis factoring as the extraction method with varimax rotation. Additionally, a discriminant function analysis was conducted to identify a discrimination score and to evaluate the accuracy of the questionnaire. Results: The factor analysis revealed: factor 1 (four questions) explained 53.7% of the variance, factor 2 (four questions) with an additional 17.4%, and factor 3 (two questions) an additional 6.3%. Overall, these factors accounted for 77.4% of the variance. There was a distinct discrimination score of 10.3 to identify people who have the minimally accepted criteria for FAI. Overall, the IdFAI has an accuracy of 89.6%. Conclusion: This investigation showed that the IdFAI was a feasible and appropriate way to identify individuals with FAI. Clinical Relevance: We suggest clinicians and researchers utilize the IdFAI to identify individuals with functional ankle instability since it is a short, simple, easy questionnaire to administer and take, and has been shown to have excellent accuracy. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3113\/fai.2012.0755","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,10,4]],"date-time":"2012-10-04T18:21:55Z","timestamp":1349374915000},"page":"755-763","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":141,"title":["Development of the Identification of Functional Ankle Instability                (IdFAI)"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Janet","family":"Simon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Instructor, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matthew","family":"Donahue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Instructor, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carrie","family":"Docherty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Professor, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1249\/MSS.0b013e318192d044"},{"key":"bibr2-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-195537060-00011"},{"key":"bibr3-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4085\/1062-6050-45.1.29"},{"key":"bibr4-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1249\/MSS.0b013e3181de7a8a"},{"key":"bibr5-FAI.2012.0755","first-page":"154","volume":"41","author":"Docherty C","year":"2006","journal-title":"J Athl Train"},{"key":"bibr6-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3113\/FAI.2011.1140"},{"key":"bibr7-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ptsp.2008.02.001"},{"key":"bibr8-FAI.2012.0755","volume":"8","author":"Eechaute C","year":"2007","journal-title":"BMC Muscloskeletal Disorders"},{"key":"bibr9-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2165\/00007256-200737010-00006"},{"key":"bibr10-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.47B4.669"},{"key":"bibr11-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/036354657700500606"},{"key":"bibr12-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110079801901002"},{"key":"bibr13-FAI.2012.0755","first-page":"35","volume":"40","author":"Hale S","year":"2005","journal-title":"Reliability and Sensitivity of the Foot and Ankle Disability Index in Subjects with Chronic Ankle Instability J Athl Train"},{"key":"bibr14-FAI.2012.0755","first-page":"363","volume":"37","author":"Hertel J","year":"2002","journal-title":"Functional Anatomy, Pathomechanics, and Pathophysiology of Lateral Ankle Instability J Athl Train"},{"key":"bibr15-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.apmr.2006.05.022"},{"key":"bibr16-FAI.2012.0755","first-page":"311","volume":"42","author":"Hootman J","year":"2007","journal-title":"J Athl Train"},{"key":"bibr17-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jor.20934"},{"key":"bibr18-FAI.2012.0755","first-page":"481","volume":"37","author":"Hubbard T","year":"2002","journal-title":"J Athl Train"},{"key":"bibr19-FAI.2012.0755","first-page":"201","volume":"101","author":"Jackson DW","year":"1974","journal-title":"Ankle Sprains in Young Athletes: Relation of severity and disability Clin Orthop"},{"key":"bibr20-FAI.2012.0755","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107110070502601113"},{"key":"bibr21-FAI.2012.0755","unstructured":"21.
