Objective:
To translate, culturally adapt and validate the Cuestionário de Expectativas (CEA) for the Brazilian context, with focus on assessing the expectations of patients during pre-surgical stage.
Methods:
An analytical and descriptive study was carried out, including translation, back-translation, adaptation and validation of the CEA. The process involved 119 participants who answered the questionnaire, allowing the analysis of understanding of the items using the Content Validity Index (CVI) and Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Reliability was assessed with Cronbach's Alpha, McDonald's Omega and Composite Reliability coefficients, using Item Response Theory (IRT).
Results:
The questionnaire had a total CVI of 0.974, indicating good comprehension by the participants, as well as high values for three internal consistency coefficients (⍺ = 0.828; ω = 0.854; CC = 0.900). The instrument showed great consistency indices and validity measures to be applied on a large scale.
Conclusion:
The validity and reliability of the instrument were confirmed. Therefore, the instrument was translated, adapted and validated for Brazilian Portuguese.
Levels Of Evidence:
Step 2.
