ABSTRACT Objective: to carry out the cross-cultural validation of the instrument “Child Adolescent Teasing Scale” for the Colombian student population. Method: methodological study carried out with students aged 8 to 15, from public and private educational institutions in the municipality of Ibagué, Colombia. The form for the characterization of students and the Child Adolescent Teasing Scale were used. Results: the cross-cultural adaptation process was organized in seven steps: comparison of the Spanish version of the instrument with the original English version, back-translation, consensus version, face validity and terminology adjustment by students, face and content validity by experts, assessment committee for the final version, pilot test and reliability. Conclusion: the version adapted to the Spanish spoken in Colombia of the Child Adolescent Teasing Scale (Escala de burlas para niños y adolescentes), which assesses the frequency and distress caused by teasing, showed desirable results in terms of validity and reliability.

Objectives: Translate the Convexity Assessment Guide into the Portuguese language and perform its semantic, linguistic, conceptual and cultural validation. Methods: Translation study, qualitative descriptive, following the recommended phases: translation, back translation, comparison of original and translated versions back to Portuguese, validation by national experts committee. Results: It was obtained 400 evaluations – 49 annulled and 351 valid – which represents the total used for the agreement analysis of the items. After the analysis, there were six discordant items, reviewed according to the experts’ suggestions, obtaining, then, a greater agreement of 90% in all items evaluated. Conclusion: There was a high level of agreement among the evaluator’s committee, ensuring the continuity of the study with the cross-cultural validation of the Convexity Guide for the Brazilian reality. This research promoted the translation of an instrument that assists in the clinical indication of collector devices for stomas. The validation of the translation into the Portuguese language was obtained, being this the first phase of the process of cross-cultural validation.

The purpose of this study was to examine the cross-cultural validity of the effects of attachment, career-choice pessimism, and intrinsic motivation on career adaptability (CA) in American ( n = 198) and Korean ( n = 294) college students. We hypothesized that the association between attachment and CA is sequentially mediated by career-choice pessimism and intrinsic motivation in both samples, and the results supported the hypothesized multilevel model. These results have important implications for practice to promote CA for college students across cultures by providing evidence for cross-cultural validation of factors influencing on CA.

We examined the cross-cultural equivalence of a widely used instrument that assesses perceived parental rearing, the EMBU-C, among native Dutch and immigrant adolescents living in The Netherlands. The results of a multigroup confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the factor structure of the EMBU-C, consisting of three latent factors (Warmth, Rejection, and Overprotection), and reliabilities of these scales are similar in both samples. These findings lend further support for the factorial and construct validity of this instrument. The comparison of perceived child rearing between native Dutch and immigrant adolescents showed cultural differences in only one of the assessed dimensions: Immigrant adolescents perceive their parents as more overprotective than do Dutch adolescents.
