The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The Achilles Tendon Total Rupture Score (ATRS) (2007, methodology): “The FAOS consists of 42 items in 5 subscales and is an adaptation of the validated Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score.24 The FAOS is self-administered but contains several questions that were considered to have low face validity for Achilles tendon total rupture patients.”
Selection criteria for patients with chronic ankle instability in controlled research: a position statement of the International Ankle Consortium (2013, methodology): “if functional impairment is relevant to the proposed project or intervention then validated ankle specific questionnaires that were designed to evaluate self-reported function should be used to create the necessary inclusion criterion.(42,43)”
