“…(7) The Reproductive Autonomy Scale was culturally adapted as proposed by scholars of this procedure (8) . There was a change in the back translation step that was held after the judges committee's opinion (9) , but its purpose of showing possible errors of meaning between the original and the adapted version was maintained, which would not occur if the adapted version was later modified by the judges' committee. (9) The study was carried out in two Brazilian states: in the São Francisco Valley, city of Petrolina, state of Pernambuco, and in Quilombola communities of the Identidade Sertão Produtivo Territory, state of Bahia.…”

Objective: To translate and adapt the Reproductive Autonomy Scale to the Brazilian culture and evaluate the reliability of the adapted version. Methods: Methodological study, in which were followed the steps of translation, consensus among judges, back-translation, semantic validation and pre-test. Reliability was checked through internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha) and temporal stability by using the test-retest (intraclass correlation coeffi cient). The scale was applied to a sample of 140 women, of which 70 were rural workers of the São Francisco Valley and 70 were quilombola communities of the Identidade Sertão Produtivo Territory, in Brazil. Results: The Reproductive Autonomy Scale was appropriately adapted for the Brazilian culture. The overall Cronbach's alpha of the scale was 0.76, which indicates adequate internal consistency. The reproducibility analysis showed no signifi cant difference in test-retest scores and the ICC value=0.93 for the whole scale indicated excellent reproducibility. Conclusion: The Reproductive Autonomy Scale is appropriate and reliable to evaluate the reproductive autonomy of Brazilian women. ResumoObjetivo: Traduzir e adaptar a Reproductive Autonomy Scale para a cultura brasileira e avaliar a confi abilidade da versão adaptada. Métodos: Estudo metodológico, que seguiu as etapas de tradução, consenso entre juízas, retro-tradução, validação semântica e pré-teste. A confi abilidade foi verifi cada de acordo com a consistência interna (alfa de Cronbach) e a estabilidade temporal usando o teste-reteste (coefi ciente de correlação intraclasse). A escala foi aplicada em uma amostra de 140 mulheres, sendo 70 trabalhadoras rurais do Vale do São Francisco e 70 quilombolas do Território de Identidade Sertão Produtivo, no Brasil. Resultados: A Reproductive Autonomy Scale foi adequadamente adaptada para cultura brasileira. O alfa de Cronbach da escala como um todo foi de 0,76, indicando consistência interna adequada. A análise da reprodutibilidade mostrou que não houve diferença signifi cativa nos escores teste-reteste e o valor do CCI=0,93 para toda escala indicou excelente reprodutibilidade. Conclusão: A Reproductive Autonomy Scale é apropriada e confi ável para avaliar a autonomia reprodutiva de mulheres brasileiras. ResumenObjetivo: Traducir y adaptar la Reproductive Autonomy Scale a la cultura brasileña y evaluar la confi abilidad de la versión adaptada. Métodos: Estudio metodológico que siguió las etapas de traducción, consenso entre juezas, retrotraducción, validación semántica y prueba piloto. La confi abilidad fue verifi cada de acuerdo con la consistencia interna (alfa de Cronbach) y la estabilidad temporal con la utilización del test-retest (coefi ciente de correlación intraclase).

Objective. The aim of the study was to perform translation and cultural adaptation, as well as to assess the validity and reliability of the Polish version of the Neonatal Extent of Work Rationing Instrument (NEWRI) questionnaire for evaluating care rationing in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in Poland. Materials and Method. Participants were prospectively recruited at the University Clinical Hospital in Wroclaw, Poland, and the study conducted from January 2018-June 2018. The adaptation process involved translation of survey items following the guidelines for cross-cultural translation and evaluation of psychometric properties, as well as an assessment of construct validity, reliability, and internal consistency of the NEWRI using Cronbach's alpha. Results. 113 professionally active nurses (n=90) and midwives (n=23) were enrolled in the study. Cronbach's alpha for the entire instrument was 0.982. Results for subscales: life support and technology-oriented nursing care-Cronbach's alpha-0.95, parental support and teaching and infant comfort care-0.95, patient surveillance-0.92, care coordination and discharge planning-0.79. All items of the questionnaire were found to have a positive discriminatory power. Conclusions. The present findings indicate a high level of reliability and validity of the translated questionnaire, fully comparable to that of the original. The questionnaire can be used for evaluating care rationing in NICUs.

“…The barriers to research utilization were measured by The Barriers Scale—Brazilian Portuguese version. The Barriers Scale was developed by Funk and collaborators (Funk et al, 1991) in the United States and translated and validated for the Brazilian Portuguese by Ferreira and collaborators (Ferreira, Ferreira et al, 2017). The Barriers Scale is composed of 29 items that represent barriers to the use the results of research to help guide nurse's practice in which the participant reports the barrier on a Likert scale from 1 to 4, with 1 representing “this is a barrier to no extent” and 4 “this is a barrier to a great extent.”…”

“…The 29 items are divided into four factors: Factor 1—Characteristics of nurses concerning research, that is, assigned value, skills, knowledge and awareness; Factor 2—Characteristics of the organization in which the research can be used, the barriers and limitations of this setting; Factor 3—Characteristics of the innovation, that is, qualities of the research, assessed by methodological inadequacies, conclusions, lack of replication of the research, conflicting results in the literature, uncertainty of the nurse regarding the credibility of the results research and slowness of publication; and Factor 4—Characteristics of the communication, that is, offer and accessibility of research, lack of readability and clarity of the implications of research for practice, lack of availability of research reports and misunderstanding of statistical analyses (Ferreira et al, 2017; Funk et al, 1991).…”

Aims This study aimed to investigate the influence of barriers to the use of research results in the practice of nurses on patient safety perception. Background The use of research results in clinical practice promotes safe care, increases quality and reduces the possibility of adverse events. Design This is a cross‐sectional study. Methods The sample consisted of 207 nurses from three public university hospitals in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil from March 2017 to November 2018. They answered a questionnaire with professional characteristics, The Barriers Scale and Safety Attitudes Questionnaire. Descriptive analysis, Student's t test, Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression were used for data analysis. Results The findings showed most nurses had unfavourable competencies for implementing research results in practice. As barrier scores for the use of research results in practice increase, safety climate scores decrease. Taking a training course on the use of research results in clinical practice and organization characteristics, limitations of the setting were statistically significant, constituting factors that influence the perception of the safety climate. Conclusion Investments in education are needed for health professionals to be aware of evidence‐based practice and how to use evidence to impact decision‐making outcomes, strengthening safety outcomes in health services.
