    Objectives: To describe the translation and cross-cultural adaptation process of NECPAL CCOMS-ICO© tool to Portuguese language and to analyze semantic validity, as well as the content of the tool. Methods: This work consists of a methodological research about NECPAL CCOMS-ICO© tool cross-cultural adaptation from its original version in Spanish to Portuguese and measurement of semantic and content validities after translation process. The cross-cultural adaptation process was conducted according to Beaton recommendations, following the next steps: translation; translation synthesis; back-translation; analysis of semantic, idiomatic, conceptual and cultural equivalences of translated and back-translated tool versions by an expert committee composed of nine members, resulting in a pre-final version, which has been submitted to the authors of original tool to approval. Field testing was then performed, involving 35 health professionals. IVC was calculated to analyze semantic and content validities. Results: Cross-cultural adaptation process allowed us to construct of the final version of this tool, which is now named NECPAL-BR. The analysis of Content Validity, performed during expert committee evaluation, showed IVC 0.87. Collected data from pre-testing step enabled the analysis of Semantic Validity. The IVC observed at this step was 0.94. Conclusions: Considering IVC results, we have concluded that the tool has understandable and relevant items. In other words, there is agreement between requested capability in a specific domain and requested performance in the test conceived to measure this domain, confirming Semantic and Content Validities of the tool in its adapted version to Brazilian Portuguese.

    Psychometric properties of the sixth version of the Addiction Severity Index (ASI-6) in Brazil
    (Associação Brasileira de Psiquiatria - ABP, 2012-03-01) Kessler, Felix; Cacciola, John; Alterman, Arthur; Faller, Sibele; Souza-Formigoni, Maria Lucia Oliveira de [UNIFESP]; Cruz, Marcelo Santos; Brasiliano, Sílvia; Pechansky, Flavio; Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Center for Drug and Alcohol Research; University of Pennsylvania Treatment Research Institute (TRI) and Department of Psychiatry; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro Psychiatric Institute; Universidade de São Paulo (USP)
    BACKGROUND: There are few research tools in Brazil to assess more broadly the alcohol and other drug related problems. OBJECTIVE: To test the psychometric properties of ASI in its sixth version (ASI-6). METHODS: A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted in four Brazilian state capitals. Four research centers interviewed 150 adult inpatients or outpatients, and one research center interviewed 140 patients. A total of 740 substance abusers were selected. Training and supervision of interviewers were performed to assure the quality of dada collected. RESULTS: Most areas of the ASI showed good reliability between the instrument and the interviewers, with no statistically significant differences between the ASI-6 Summary Scores for Recent Functioning (SS-Rs) of both interviews. Cronbach's alpha for ASI-6 subscales ranged from 0.64 to 0.95. Correlations between the ASI-6 Alcohol and Drug scores and the concurrent instrument (ASSIST) were high (0.72 and 0.89, respectively). There was a significant negative correlation between the scores in psychiatric, medical and drug areas and the scores of WHOQOL. CONCLUSION: Analysis of the psychometric properties of ASI-6 both in outpatients and inpatients in Brazil indicate a good reliability and validity of this instrument for the Brazilian culture. The development of this instrument in Brazil is an important advancement, which will certainly have implications for the prevention, clinical research, and social rehabilitation fields.
