          Abstract

          O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma revisão sistemática dos instrumentos para a avaliação de sintomas ansiosos e Transtornos de Ansiedade (TA) disponíveis no Brasil. Foi realizada uma revisão nas bases Index Psi, PePSIC, SciELO, LILACS, PsycINFO e PUBMED com auxílio de estratégias extras. Foram incluídos 99 estudos, contemplando 69 instrumentos de avaliação. A maioria dos instrumentos é composta por adaptações transculturais, de estilo psicométrico e autoaplicados. Sete categorias emergiram dos resultados, evidenciando o caráter multifacetado do construto ansiedade. Há alternativas para investigação de TA em diferentes faixas etárias e contextos. A maioria dos estudos apresentou boas evidências de validade e fidedignidade para os instrumentos avaliados, embora alguns ainda careçam de maiores investigações. O avanço e o contínuo monitoramento dos estudos acerca da avaliação de TA oferecem subsídios teóricos e empíricos para o desenvolvimento do construto ansiedade e para a prevenção e tratamento dos TA.

          The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review of the instruments for the assessment of Anxiety Disorders (AD) available in Brazil. A literature review was conducted in Index Psi, PePSIC, SciELO, LILACS, PsycINFO, and PUBMED databases complemented by extra strategies. The review included 99 studies about 69 assessment instruments. Most of the instruments were cross-cultural adaptations, psychometric-based and self-reported. Results were divided into seven categories of instruments, supporting the multifaceted characteristics of the anxiety construct. Alternatives for the assessment of AD in different age ranges and contexts were found. Most of the studies presented good validity and reliability evidences of the instruments evaluated, although some still need further investigations. The progress and continuous monitoring of the studies about AD assessment provide theoretical and empirical support for the development of the anxiety construct and for the prevention and treatment of AD.

            Cross-cultural adaptation of research instruments: language, setting, time and statistical considerations

            Background Research questionnaires are not always translated appropriately before they are used in new temporal, cultural or linguistic settings. The results based on such instruments may therefore not accurately reflect what they are supposed to measure. This paper aims to illustrate the process and required steps involved in the cross-cultural adaptation of a research instrument using the adaptation process of an attitudinal instrument as an example. Methods A questionnaire was needed for the implementation of a study in Norway 2007. There was no appropriate instruments available in Norwegian, thus an Australian-English instrument was cross-culturally adapted. Results The adaptation process included investigation of conceptual and item equivalence. Two forward and two back-translations were synthesized and compared by an expert committee. Thereafter the instrument was pretested and adjusted accordingly. The final questionnaire was administered to opioid maintenance treatment staff (n=140) and harm reduction staff (n=180). The overall response rate was 84%. The original instrument failed confirmatory analysis. Instead a new two-factor scale was identified and found valid in the new setting. Conclusions The failure of the original scale highlights the importance of adapting instruments to current research settings. It also emphasizes the importance of ensuring that concepts within an instrument are equal between the original and target language, time and context. If the described stages in the cross-cultural adaptation process had been omitted, the findings would have been misleading, even if presented with apparent precision. Thus, it is important to consider possible barriers when making a direct comparison between different nations, cultures and times.
