Introduction: Ankle musculoskeletal disorders are common among various populations, including athletes and the elderly. However, there's a lack of specific instruments in the literature that address factors influencing the progression of these disorders. Objective: This review aims to identify and describe questionnaires focusing on these factors, emphasizing their psychometric characteristics, feasibility, and applicability across different populations. Methods: This study is a systematic review protocol developed according to PRISMA-P recommendations. Searches were conducted in various databases, including Medline, Embase, LILACS, PEDro, SCOPUS, CENTRAL, CINAHL, and Web of Science, without time limitation. The results will be analyzed using the Rayyan®️ software, where two researchers will conduct the identification and removal of duplicates, selection, and screening of studies, with discrepancies resolved by a third examiner. Results: The first phase will comprise reading titles and abstracts, followed by a full manuscript analysis. Methodological quality will be assessed using the COSMIN checklist. Psychometric evidence will follow Terwee et al. criteria. The overall synthesis score will combine the consistency of psychometric evidence with methodological quality, categorizing studies according to levels of evidence proposed by the Cochrane Musculoskeletal Group. The article eligibility process will be represented through the PRISMA flowchart, and results will be presented in tables and figures accompanied by descriptive and narrative analysis. Dissemination will include peer-reviewed publication and conferences in rehabilitation-specific contexts. Conclusion: This study aims to compile existing research to streamline the analysis and application of ankle joint assessment questionnaires recommended for clinical use. It will focus on identifying high-quality questionnaires and examining their ability to explore barriers and facilitators in rehabilitation processes.
