ABSTRACT Objective: to culturally adapt the Adaptation Scale to Elimination Ostomy for the Brazilian Portuguese language and to evaluate the content validity. Method: a methodological study, which stages of cultural adaptation were: adaptation to Brazilian Portuguese; committee of seven experts to evaluate the semantic, idiomatic, cultural and conceptual equivalences; and pre-test with 30 people with ostomy, performed between 2016 and 2017. The content validation was then performed, according to the Content Validity Coefficient greater than or equal to 0.80 and kappa coefficient. Results: the target population demonstrated good understanding in the pre-test. The Content Validity Coefficient of the scale reached values of 0.9 for the criteria: language clarity, practical relevance and theoretical relevance, and for the “dimension” category, the kappa mean value (0.587). Conclusion: the Adaptation Scale to Elimination Ostomy, built and validated originally in Portugal, was culturally adapted to Brazil, constituting an easy-to-understand resource, but it is still necessary to attest the psychometric properties of this version.

Imagery Techniques

Imagery can be defined as a human capacity of mentally rehearse and reproduce a skill. The use of imagery techniques is common among athletes. To contribute with sport psychologists on the quantitative assessment of mental training based on Allan Paivio’s model, this study aims to translate, adapt and assess content validity of the Sport Imagery Questionnaire in Brazil. The process of adaptation followed the guidelines of the International Test Commission. Three independent translators translated to Brazilian Portuguese; then the synthesis of those items produced the first version of the instrument that was back-translated to English. This first version in Brazilian Portuguese with the original and back-translated versions in English were sent to four bilingual sport psychology specialists. Content Validity Coefficient was used to evaluate cultural adequacy, understanding and quality of translation of each item and the questionnaire. Results showed an average CVC of 0,88 for adequacy, 0,87 for understanding and 0,85 for quality of translation among items and a CVC of 0,88 for the scale as a whole. Obtained data was discussed through the light of sports practice and culture in Brazil.

Objective: To translate and culturally adapt the International Skin Tear Advisory Panel (ISTAP) Skin Tear Classification into the Portuguese language in Brazil and test the content validity of the adapted version. Methods: The cultural adaption comprised three phases: translation, evaluation by committee of judges composed of five stomatherapists (confirming the instrument content validity) and back-translation. Results: Two Brazilian Portuguese versions of the instrument were obtained after translation and analyzed by the committee, disagreements arose over several health related terms. This generated low values of the content validity index. However, the content validity was confirmed after discussion of discrepancies between the authors and some members of the judges’ committee, as well as with one of the authors of the original instrument, Dr. Kimberly LeBlanc, who also testified that validity when approving the back-translations of the adapted version to Brazilian Portuguese. Conclusion: The culturally adapted version of the ISTAP Skin Tear Classification is considered to have been obtained, with its content validity also attested. At that moment, the tests for inter and intraobserver reliability and concurrent validity are in the finalization phase, after which the instrument adapted and validated for Brazil will be made available.

ABSTRACT Background: After a traumatic brain injury, post-concussion symptoms are commonly reported by patients. Although common, these symptoms are difficult to diagnose and recognize. To date, no instruments evaluating post-concussion symptoms have been culturally translated or adapted to the Brazilian context. Objective: To culturally adapt the Rivermead Post-Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire for use in Brazilian Portuguese. Methods: Cross-cultural adaptation was done in five steps: translation, synthesis of translations, back-translation, evaluation by two expert committees and two pretests among adults in a target population. Results: The semantic, idiomatic, cultural and experimental aspects of the adaptation were considered adequate. The content validity coefficient of the items regarding language clarity, pratical pertinence, relevance and dimensionality were considered adequate for evaluating the desired latent variable. Both pretests demonstrated that the instrument had satisfactory acceptability. Conclusion: The Brazilian version, named Questionário Rivermead de Sintomas pós Concussionais (RPQ-Br), has been adapted, and is ready for use in the Brazilian context.

Translation And Cultural Adaptation

Abstract Gender studies on childhood imply the use of tools that, if elaborated in another country, they need to be translated and culturally adapted to Brazilian Portuguese. Objectives: To translate and adapt Cuban Spanish versions of the Encuesta de constatación y reflexión del sexismo en el ámbito escolar, and the Cuestionário auto-administrado de constatación y reflexión del sexismo en el ámbito escolar. Method: A qualitative and methodological study was developed with 37 experts (15 teachers of elementary school and 22 healthcare professionals on child health) from the Brazilian cities (Rio de Janeiro, Macaé, Itajaí, Porto Alegre) and Cuban (Habana). Results: Nine original questions of original tools were modified and adapted to the language, culture and elementary Brazilian education system. It was necessary to split the first tool into two separate parts (classroom and break) for facilitating its application by observers. Conclusion: Changes improved the deepness, consistency of observations among observers and introduced more specificity to final versions of tools for further applications on nursing and education studies.

PURPOSE: To present the cross-cultural equivalence of the Brazilian version of the Evaluation of the Ability to Sing Easily (EASE) protocol, through its cultural and linguistic adaptation. METHODS: After the EASE was translated to Brazilian Portuguese, the back-translation into English was done. The items of the translated version were compared with the original instrument and the discrepancies were modified by consensus of a committee composed of five speech language pathologists. The Evaluation of the Ability to Sing Easily for Brazil (EASE-BR) has 22 questions with four alternatives: "no," "mildly," "moderately," and "extremely." The score is obtained by the simple sum of all answers. The three positive items (6, 12, and 21) require reverse score. For cultural equivalence, the EASE-BR was applied with 41 Brazilian singers, with an extra item in the answer key - "not applicable." The aim of this extra key was to identify issues that might not have been understood or were not appropriate for the target population and the Brazilian culture. RESULTS: Of the 32 singers, 5 who were initially evaluated had difficulties to answer 3 of the 22 questions. Therefore, the adaptation of those sentences was necessary. Afterward, the modified EASE-BR was applied to nine singers, and no more cultural and/or conceptual barriers were found. CONCLUSION: Cultural equivalence was observed between EASE and its translated version to the Brazilian Portuguese, the EASE-BR. Validation of the EASE for Brazilian Portuguese is in progress.
