TRADUÇÃO E ADAPTAÇÃO CULTURAL BRASILEIRA DO INSTRUMENTO DE AVALIAÇÃO ASSESSMENT OF LIFE HABITS FOR CHILDREN

Background: Instruments for evaluating child development are increasingly used in clinical and scientific research and Brazil has a shortage of validated instruments for its population. The Canadian Living Habits Assessment (LIFE-H) instrument for children was developed for the assessment of children’s lifestyles and illustrates the dynamic interaction between personal and environmental factors. Objective: To translate and culturally adapt LIFE-H for children from 0 to 4 years old into Brazilian reality. Methods: A certified linguist and three qualified physiotherapists participated in the translation phase. The translated instrumentLIFE-H_BR was subjected to semantic and content analysis by lower strata (five potential users) and sophisticated (four technical users) strata. Thirty health professionals participated in cultural adaptation. A coefficient of raw agreement was applied for the analysis of Semantics and Content and a Correlation of Distances analysis was applied between the judges. Results: High agreement and similarity between technical judges in the translation process and the need for cultural adaptation of children. Conclusions: LIFE-H_BR can be used to evaluate the life habits of Brazilian children aged 0 to 4 years.
