Propriedades psicométricas de indicador subjetivo aplicado em crianças

Abstract

ObjectiveTo evaluate the psychometric properties of the Oral Heath Impact Profile to measure oral health in children. Methods

Validity and Reliability of the Oral Health Impact Profile Instrument (OHIP-14) in Adolescents

“…The OHIP-14 also showed criterion validity, since its total score showed significant correlation with the scores of self-perception of oral health -concurrent validity -and of the SF-12 -divergent validity. These findings were also observed in previous studies developed with adolescents (Ferreira et al, 2004) and in other populations (Cohen-Carneiro et al, 2010;Montero-Martín et al, 2009;Zucoloto et al, 2014). This reduced version did not affect the validity of the OHIP for the adolescent population, which has been a concern described in literature (Awad et al, 2008).…”

“…Regarding the reliability of the OHIP-14, a satisfactory internal consistence was observed, with the Cronbach alpha coefficient (0.87; CI 95% 0.86 -0.89; p < 0.001) above the acceptable level (Hair et al, 2009), which evidences items highly intercorrelated in the measure of the same latent construct and its ability to measure without errors (Hair et al, 2009;Pasquali, 2009). The OHIP-14 reliability was also observed in other validation studies of this instrument in adolescents (Ferreira et al, 2004) and in other age groups (Cohen-Carneiro et al, 2010;Montero-Martín et al, 2009;Rener-Sitar et al, 2008).…”

“…Similar results were observed in a sample of the Ribeirinhos population in Amazonas, Brazil, in which the internal consistency of the scale was satisfactory, which did not occur in the dimensions "physical pain", "psychological limitation" and "handicap" (Cohen-Carneiro et al, 2010). In 12-year-old students from the city of Sabará-MG, the internal consistency of the scale was satisfactory, but the analysis of the seven dimensions showed a Cronbach alpha value below the acceptable level (Ferreira et al, 2004).…”

“…In the validation process of an instrument, it is necessary that its reliability and validity be demonstrated in populations of different age groups, sociodemographic conditions and oral health (Barbosa et al, 2010). In literature, studies assessed the psychometric properties of OHIP-14 (Awad, Al-Shamrany, Locker, Allen, & Feine, 2008;Cohen-Carneiro et al, 2010;Ferreira, Loureiro, & Araújo, 2004;Montero-Martín et al, 2009),and most were conducted with adults and seniors (Cohen-Carneiro et al, 2010;Montero-Martín et al, 2009;Zucoloto et al, 2014). There is a gap in relation to the validation of OHIP-14 in the adolescent population.…”

“…Esses questionários foram construídos para serem aplicados na população adulta, porém, recentemente, tanto o OHIP quanto o OIDP foram utilizados em estudos envolvendo adolescentes 17,49,50,51 .…”
