“…3 In fact, our Brazilian community sample scored as high as the U.S. sample of children meeting criteria for bipolar disorder in the work of Stringaris et al 3 Even though these two samples cannot be compared directly due to methodological differences between studies, the fact that Brazilian children presented relatively high ARI scores is consistent with previous research indicating that, among youths from 42 societies, Brazilian youths had the highest mean total Child Behavior Checklist problem scores. 13 However, it can also be hypothesized that the Brazilian Findings from the IRT analysis build on the original study reporting the development and investigation of the psychometric properties of the ARI. 3 By analyzing the discrimination parameter of the items, we were able to demonstrate that item 2 (often lose temper) was the best discriminative item.…”

Adaptação transcultural e propriedades psicométricas preliminares do Affective Reactivity Index em jovens brasileiros: implicações para a irritabilidade medida pelo Cross-cultural adaptation and preliminary psychometric properties of the Affective Reactivity Index in Brazilian Youth: implications for DSM-5 measured irritability Abstract Objective: To describe the cross-cultural adaptation of the Affective Reactivity Index (ARI) to Brazilian Portuguese and to investigate preliminary psychometric properties of the adapted version. Methods: Cross-cultural adaptation was based on the investigation of the theoretical and operational equivalences of the original ARI in the Brazilian context, followed by a process of translation, back-translation, and review by a committee of experts. Data analysis was carried out in a community sample of 133 schoolchildren aged 8 to 17 years to investigate the following characteristics of the ARI: 1) factor structure; 2) internal consistency; 3) construct validity comparing differential relationships between irritability and anxiety dimensions and impairment; and 4) item response theory (IRT) parameters. Results: A final Brazilian Portuguese version of the instrument was defined and is presented. Internal consistency was good, and our analysis supported the original single-factor structure of the ARI. Correlations of the ARI with distress-related anxiety dimensions were higher than with phobic-related anxiety dimensions, supporting its construct validity. In addition, higher ARI scores were associated with higher irritability-related impairment. IRT analysis underscored frequency of loss of temper as essential to inform about pathological states of irritability. Conclusion:The Brazilian Portuguese version of the ARI seems to be very similar to the original instrument in terms of conceptual, item, semantic, and operational equivalence. Our preliminary analysis replicates and extends previous evidence confirming promising psychometric properties for the ARI. Keywords: Affective Reactivity Index, irritability, cross-cultural adaptation, psychometrics, item response theory. ResumoObjetivo: Descrever a adaptação transcultural do Affective Reactivity Index (ARI) para o português do Brasil e investigar propriedades psicométricas preliminares da versão adaptada. Método: A adaptação transcultural foi baseada na investigação das equivalências teórica e operacional da versão original do ARI no contexto brasileiro, seguida do processo de tradução, retrotradução e revisão por comitê de especialistas. A análise dos dados foi realizada em uma amostra comunitária de 133 escolares com idade entre 8 e 17 anos para investigar as seguintes características do ARI: 1) estrutura fatorial; 2) consistência interna; 3) validade do construto, comparando as relações diferenciais entre irritabilidade e as dimensões de ansiedade e prejuízo; e 4) parâmetros de teoria da resposta ao item (TRI). Resultados: Uma versão final em português do Brasil do instrumento foi definida e é apresentada. A consistência interna fo...

“…The measure consists of 119 items rated on a three-point scale ("not true," "somewhat/sometimes true," "very true/often true"), with higher scores indicative of more problems. The reliability and validity of the CBCL has been extensively documented [1,16,17]. As described above, although a validated CBCL sleep scale does not exist, seven of the CBCL items pertain to sleep.…”

“…Pelo fato de não ter sido realizado um estudo em nível populacional, o ponto de corte usado para a obtenção de escore-T foi o mesmo derivado da população norte-americana. Entretanto, por ser um instrumento amplamente utilizado e validado em diversos países, a aplicação do CBCL no presente estudo justifica-se também pela validade multicultural do instrumento 23 . Os escores brutos do CBCL foram transformados em escores padronizados de acordo com a pontuação da amostra normativa (escore T) e, a partir da padronização dos escores, as crianças foram classificadas como não clínicas (escores T < 67), limítrofes (T ≥ 67 e ≤ 70) e clínicas (T > 70), para cada escala do CBCL/4-18.…”

RESUMOObjetivo: Este estudo objetivou investigar a associação entre problemas de comportamento e excesso de peso (sobrepeso e obesidade) em pré-escolares de uma coorte de nascimentos do sul do Brasil, acompanhados do nascimento aos 4 anos de idade. Métodos: No acompanhamento dos quatro anos foram realizadas entrevistas domiciliares com as mães das crianças, tendo sido coletadas informações sobre a saúde e o desenvolvimento infantil, além de ser aplicado o Child Behavior Checklist 4-18/CBCL. Resultados: Cerca de 15% dos meninos e 12% das meninas de 4 anos apresentaram excesso de peso, e a associação entre problemas de comportamento e o excesso de peso nessa idade se deu apenas em problemas de ansiedade-depressão, nas meninas (OR: 3,79 [IC95%: 1,60-8,97]; p = 0,002). Conclusões: Meninas em idade pré-escolar com excesso de peso apresentaram mais problemas de ansiedade-depressão do que as com peso adequado da mesma idade. Essa informação é de extrema relevância, visto que os anos pré-escolares são ideais para se investir em prevenção, tanto dos problemas de comportamento, como do excesso de peso, possibilitando introduzir comportamentos/hábitos mais saudáveis e diminuir, assim, as consequências negativas que ambos acarretam à vida das crianças. ABSTRACTObjective: This study aimed to investigate the association between behavior problems and excess of weight (overweight and obesity) in preschool children from a birth cohort in southern Brazil, followed from birth to four years old. Methods: In the follow-up of four years, home interviews with mothers were carried out where information on the health and development of children were collected, in addition to application of the Child Behavior Checklist 4-18/CBCL. Results: About 15% of boys and 12% of four-year girls were overweight/obese, and the association between behavior problems and excess of weight in this age occurred only with problems of anxiety-depression in girls (OR: 3.79 [95% CI: 1.60 to 8.97]; p = 0.002). Conclusions: Preschool girls with excess of weight showed more problems of anxiety and depression than those with adequate weight at the same age. This information is extremely important, as the preschool years are ideal for investing in prevention of both behavioral problems and overweight/obesity, allowing to introduce healthier habits and behaviors and decrease thus the negative consequences both cause to children.
