Cross-cultural adaptation of the Preterm Parenting & Self-efficacy Checklist

ABSTRACT Objective: To conduct a cross-cultural adaptation of the Preterm Parenting & Self-Efficacy Checklist to the Brazilian Portuguese. Method: A methodological study was carried out with 51 parents of premature infants. Data analysis was based on psychometric and inferential statistical analyses. Results: The instrument content validation by experts obtained excellent agreement (97%) and the semantic analysis by the target population showed good understanding of the terms and ease of use. In test-retest, most participants were female (64.7%); and parents with higher education (47.1%). The instrument showed stability over time, with good internal consistency (α = 0.84). Four factors were generated in the subscales parenting self-efficacy, importance of tasks and self-perceived parental competence (67.0% to 74.2% of the variance). Conclusion: The properties of the Preterm Parenting & Self-Efficacy Checklist – Brazilian Version were maintained, which is a reliable indicator to evaluate the hospital discharge of premature infants.

【摘要】目的：对《早产儿育儿与自我效能量表（Preterm Parenting & Self-Efficacy Checklist）》进行巴西葡萄牙语版本的跨文化调适。方法：本研究为方法学研究，共纳入51名早产儿父母作为研究对象，数据分析采用心理测量学与推断性统计分析方法。结果：专家对该量表的内容效度验证一致性达97%，表现优异；目标人群的语义分析结果显示，受试者对条目术语理解良好且易于使用。重测信度分析中，多数参与者为女性（64.7%），且受教育程度较高者占比47.1%；该量表具有良好的时间稳定性，内部一致性系数α=0.84。子量表共提取出4个因子，分别为育儿自我效能、任务重要性及自我感知育儿能力，累计方差解释率为67.0%~74.2%。结论：《早产儿育儿与自我效能量表——巴西版》的心理测量学属性得以保留，可作为评估早产儿出院情况的可靠指标。
