“…Embora a ARI-S, a Infant Feeding Intentions Scale e a Escala de Conhecimento sobre Aleitamento Materno não tenham sido traduzidas e adaptadas, a partir da escala original em inglês, todas alcançaram equivalências semântica, idiomática, cultural e conceitual satisfatórias, no processo de tradução e adaptação cultural (8)(9) . Instrumentos de coleta de dados sobre construção de gênero na infância, traduzidos e adaptados do espanhol para o português brasileiro alcançaram equivalências semelhantes (13) .…”

“…Deste modo, na visão dos juízes, o conteúdo da ARI-S é válido para expressar a qualidade da relação entre duas pessoas próximas. Resultados semelhantes foram encontrados na validação de conteúdo dos itens da Infant Feeding Intentions Scale que alcançaram IVC entre 0,78 e 0,89 e média global de 0,85 (8) .…”

“…Por isso, o instrumento escolhido para realizar a adaptação cultural deve ser validado de forma abrangente e obter propriedades psicométricas satisfatórias (12) . Quanto à consistência interna, a versão brasileira da Escala ARI-S alcançou elevado índice, resultados compatíveis com as versões em inglês e espanhol, que obtiveram os valores totais do alfa de Cronbach 0,90 e 0,92, respectivamente (8) .…”

“…No que se refere à pontuação da ARI-S, os resultados deste estudo foram semelhantes à pesquisa realizada nos Estados Unidos, com 100 mulheres, em que a pontuação da ARI-S variou entre 59 e 128. Quanto às pessoas mais próximas, 57,0% das mulheres hispânicas elegeram o companheiro; 32,0%, a mãe; e 11,0%, pai, irmã, irmão ou sogra (8) , evidenciando a complexidade das relações afetivas em momento de extrema vulnerabilidade da mulher.…”

“…A Escala ARI, na versão em espanhol, foi adotada pelo estudo, em vez da versão inglesa desta, pelo fato deste estudo integrar os países da América Lati-na e Caribe, além do Brasil, único no continente com língua portuguesa, para possibilitar a comparação dos dados, posteriormente, no projeto multicêntrico. Uma vez que todos os sete instrumentos de obtenção de dados que compõem a pesquisa estavam na língua espanhola, foram necessárias a tradução e validação de todos eles (8)(9) . Neste artigo, apresenta-se esse processo em relação à Escala ARI.…”

Objective: to translate, culturally adapt, and validate the Calidad de la relación con su persona cercana Scale into Brazilian Portuguese. Methods: a methodological study, whose steps were: initial translation; translation synthesis; back-translation; pre-final version development by a panel of nine experts; pre-final version content validity, with 14 judges; pre-test with 30 pregnant women; reliability analysis; sending the translated version to the two authors of the original instrument. Results: outliers were reviewed and adjusted during translation and adaptation. The scale achieved conceptual and idiomatic equivalence. Content validity index was 0.92 and Cronbach’s Alpha was 0.869. The general score in the application ranged from 59 to 124, with an average of 94.4. Conclusion: after translation and adaptation, the scale was entitled Qualidade da Relação com a Pessoa Próxima, achieving semantic and idiomatic equivalence.

ObjectiveTo identify the factors associated with infant feeding intention among usual‐risk pregnant women.MethodsA quantitative cross‐sectional study was conducted in two primary healthcare institutions in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil, with usual‐risk pregnant women. A non‐probabilistic convenience sampling method was used, and 119 pregnant women participated. Data collection took place from May 2022 to February 2023. The data collection process involved using forms and the Infant Feeding Intention Scale. Ethical considerations were strictly adhered to.ResultsThe study revealed statistically significant differences in the infant’s means. The majority of pregnant women (96.6%) declared that they would breastfeed after giving birth. The intention to breastfeed exclusively was statistically higher in mothers with younger children and previous experience of breastfeeding or complications in the current pregnancy.ConclusionThis study clarified that the intention to breastfeed up to 6 months is influenced by variables encompassing the age of the youngest child, previous breastfeeding experience, and pregnancy complications, emphasizing the intricate nature of the determinants of intention to breastfeed.

This study aimed to validate a translated and culturally adapted version of the Infant Feeding Intentions (IFI) Scale for use in Thailand. Prenatal breastfeeding intention is a strong indicator of breastfeeding initiation. The stronger the intention to breastfeed among pregnant women, the more likely breastfeeding will be initiated after childbirth and continue for an extended period. There are currently no IFI scales that have been validated for use in Thailand. The translation of the IFI scale from English to Thai was conducted through a six-stage approach that included initial translation, synthesis of translations, back-translation, expert committee review for content validity, reliability testing, and submission of the translated IFI to notify the scale developers. Both Item and Scale Content Validity Indices equaled 1, scored by five experts, who also validated the content for cross-cultural adaptation. The final Thai IFI (T-IFI) scale demonstrated high content validity. A total of 30 Thai pregnant women participated in the reliability testing. The Cronbach’s alpha of the 5-item T-IFI scale was 0.857, which indicated satisfactory internal consistency. The T-IFI scale demonstrated high content validity and was culturally appropriate for use in a Thai-speaking population. It has potential to strengthen assessments of prenatal infant feeding intention among pregnant women in Thailand.
