*Fear of sustaining a new ankle sprain during sport was measured on a scale from 100 representing no fear to 0 representing maximum fear. A change of >0 reflects less fear at follow-up as compared with baseline.

†Pain in the ankle during sport was measured on a scale from 0 representing no pain to 10 representing worst pain imaginable. A change of <0 reflects less pain at follow-up as compared with baseline.
