This study evaluated the validity and reliability of the Fonseca anamnestic index (FAI) in Turkish females, finding that FAI can be used as a convenient and cost-effective tool to collect a large amount of data.
Objective: To evaluate the validity and reliability of the Fonseca anamnestic index (FAI) over time in Turkish females. Methods: Four hundred-fourteen patients who visited the otorhinolaryngology clinic were initially included in the study between January 1, 2018 and January 1, 2019. The Turkish version of the FAI is a self-report instrument that was completed by all of the patients after a brief explanation from the clinician. Cronbach's alpha was calculated using data from the first questionnaire. Results: The results of the first assessment showed 243 patients had no TMD (58.7%), 40 had mild TMD (9.7%), 87 had moderate TMD (21%), and 44 had severe TMD (10.6%). At the second assessment, the respective values were 243 (58.7%), 37 (8.9%), 98 (23.7%), and 36 (8.7%). The internal consistency of the first test was high. Conclusion: The FAI can be used to collect a large amount of data easily, at minimal cost.
