“…Since our aim was to develop a new instrument meeting the above requirements, we evaluated the existing ones 13,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] for different age groups, taking into consideration time for administration, comprehensiveness (coverage of domains) and psychometric properties when available. From these, we have identified six different domains (family, learning and work, social activities, activities of daily living, self-perception and risky activities); four of them were selected for the GEDA instrument: family life, social life, self-perception and performance.…”

Nesse processo, deve-se levar em consideração as diferenças culturais, bem como aspectos idiomáticos, semânticos, conceituais e experimentais, buscando garantir equivalências com a versão original 8,9 . Dentre os muitos instrumentos de medida da QV no climatério, o questionário Utian Quality of Life Scale (UQOL) 10 compreende instrumento com grande potencial para avaliação de mulheres na peri e pós-menopausa, por abranger avaliações das esferas ocupacional, emocional, sexual e da saúde, apresentando uma boa consistência interna para os 23 itens que o compõem, o que pode ser evidenciado pelo alfa de Cronbach de 0,83.…”
