This article describes the cross-cultural adaptation of the Motor Activity; Aged; Validation StudiesDurante o envelhecimento, o organismo é objeto de alterações fisiológicas em sua capacidade físi-ca, principalmente, alterações cardiovasculares e musculoesqueléticas 1 . Em idosos, as evidências clínicas e epidemiológicas revelam que a prática de atividade física regular tem efeito positivo na promoção da saúde, possibilitando prevenção e minimização dos efeitos deletérios do envelhecimento 1,2,3 .A prática de atividade física em idosos melhora a densidade mineral óssea, a força, a flexibilidade articular, a glicemia, o perfil lipídico, a auto-estima e a autoconfiança, além de auxiliar no controle do peso corporal, da pressão arterial, da função pulmonar, do equilíbrio, da marcha, permitindo menor dependência para realização das atividades diárias e diminuindo a incidência de quedas, o risco de fraturas, a ansiedade e a depressão. Todos esses benefícios são incontestáveis quanto à repercussão na qualidade de vida dos que a praticam 2,4,5 .

The objective of the article was to offer an operational framework to assess cross cultural adaptation processes of instruments developed in other linguistic, social and cultural contexts. It covers the need for using robust measurement tools; the importance of 'universal' instruments that permit cross cultural fi ne-tuning; and stresses the need for adapting existent instruments rather than developing new ones. Existing controversies and proposals for different procedures in current literature are reviewed and a model for adapting instruments is presented. This synthesis covers the operational steps involved in evaluating concepts, semantic and operational items, and presents psychometric analysis guidelines that underlay an evaluation of measurement equivalence. Finally, the need for adequately controlling the quality of information presented in epidemiological studies, including a meticulous cross-cultural adaptation of research agendas, is reinforced.

“…This instrument assesses the performance of older adults with cognitive impairment in 18 items, based on the assessment of five tasks, for which they receive a score of 1 (if performed) or 0 (if not performed) in each item, with a total score from 0 to 18 points. It is a simple control instrument, with easy and effective clinical applicability, and which has demonstrated "almost perfect" intra-examiner and inter-examiner agreement for mild and moderate dementia (Kappa from 0.79 to 0.89) 27 .…”

Abstract Objective: to investigate the frequency of falls and clinical and physical-functional factors associated with falls, and the accuracy of such factors to identify the risk of falling in cognitively impaired older adults. Method: a cross-sectional study with cognitively impaired older adults was carried out using the Mini-Mental State Examination. The dependent variable was a history of falls in the previous six months. The independent variables were self-reported mental confusion, hearing and visual impairment, physical fatigue, muscle weakness, dizziness, body imbalance, insecurity when walking, diagnosed depression, hospitalizations, continuous use medications (form from study used), muscle mass (calf circumference) and handgrip strength (dynamometry), functional capacity (Pfeffer) and mobility (SAM-Br). Descriptive statistics were applied. The groups were compared using the Mann Whitney U test, the risk factors were identified by univariate and multivariate logistic regression, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was calculated for the associated factors. Results: 216 cognitively impaired older adults were included in the analysis, 41.7% of whom were fallers. Multivariate regression analyzes indicated that complaints of visual impairment (OR=2.8; p=0.015) and body imbalance (OR=2.7; p=0.004), and greater medication use (OR=1.1; p=0.038) were associated with a history of falls. The AUC found poor accuracy for quantity of medications as a screening tool for fallers (AUC=0.6 [0.5; 0.7]; p=0.028). Conclusion: cognitively impaired older adults had a high frequency of falls. Complaints of visual impairment, body imbalance and polypharmacy were predictors of falls. The early assessment of these factors can contribute to the identification of cognitively-impaired older adults at risk of falling in clinical practice and research.
