Objectives:
to culturally adapt the Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for Brazil.
Methods:
a methodological study of clinical application, involving 126 healthcare professionals, developed between 2022 and 2023. The instrument measures healthcare professionals' self-efficacy in reporting cases of child abuse and neglect. The translation process into Brazilian Portuguese and back-translation followed international standards, and face validity was implemented using an international method.
Results:
the Brazilian version is composed of two dimensions and 35 items, and was well assessed by participants, with the majority considering it good or very good (88.1%), with easy-to-understand questions (73.8%), without any difficulty with the answer options (74.6%) and very important for the situation (85.7%).
Conclusions:
the translated version preserved the conceptual equivalence of items, presenting face validity, and can be considered culturally adapted to the context studied.
