“…This agreement is greater for the physical than for the psychosocial domain. Several studies tally with ours in observing both the strength of the relations and the fact that they are higher for the physical dimension than for the emotional and social dimensions of health state [14,23,26,27,30] Eiser’s systematic review [31] reports values for good agreement ( r ≥ 0.50) between the assessment of the children and that of their parents in the domains that reflect physical activity, functioning and certain symptoms, but weak agreement ( r < 0.30) for the emotional and social domains of HRQoL. It is also assumed that there is a better agreement for more easily observed behaviors associated with the functional state, and a poorer for cognitive or emotional qualities like fear and anxiety.…”

“…Other languages have also followed the same methodology, including German [19], UK English [20], Russian [6], Greek [21], Argentinean Spanish [22] and Brazilian Portuguese [23] languages. For the adopted methodology and the results obtained, it can be said that the Portuguese versions of PedsQL 4.0 are semantically equivalent, meaning that PedsQL items were also valid for the Portuguese context.…”

BackgroundPediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) is a measure to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in children and adolescents. It is formed by 23 items adapted to children age and includes a parent proxy report version. With four multidimensional subscales and three summary scores, it measures health as defined by WHO. The concepts measured by this instrument are ‘physical functioning’ (8 items), ‘emotional functioning’ (5 items), ‘social functioning’ (5 items) and ‘school functioning’ (5 items). It also measures a ‘total scale score’ (23 items), a ‘physical health summary score’ (8 items) and a ‘psychosocial health summary score’ (15 items). The aim of this paper is to present the main results of the cultural adaptation and validation of the PedsQL into European Portuguese.MethodsThe Portuguese version was the result of a forward-backward translation process, with a cognitive debriefing analysis, guaranteeing face validity and semantic equivalence. Children aged 5–7 and 8–12 were randomly selected and were asked to fill a socio-demographic data survey and the Portuguese versions of PedsQL and KINDL, another HRQoL measure for children and adolescents. They were divided into three groups, healthy children, children with type I diabetes and children with spina bifida.The reliability was tested for reproducibility (ICC) and internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha). The construct validity (known-groups discriminant validity) was supported by differences between self-reports from healthy children and children with chronic conditions, and from children with chronic diseases and their parents. The criterion validity was tested after the correlations of the scores obtained by both children and adolescents HRQoL assessment instruments.ResultsA total of 179 children and 97 parents were recruited. PedsQL demonstrated good levels of reproducibility (r > 0.95 in all versions) and acceptable levels of internal consistency with Cronbach’s alpha at 0.70 on most scales. Concordance values between children’s and parents’ perceptions ranged between 0.36 and 0.78 and the correlations with KINDL questionnaire were excellent, supporting concurrent validity.ConclusionsThe Portuguese version of the PedsQL demonstrated acceptable psychometric properties for future research and clinical practice for children aged 5–12.

“…The results can be interpreted by total score or grouped according to the areas: Psychosocial Health and Physical Ability. The score is determined in absolute value ranging from 0 to 100, so that the higher the score, the better the quality of life 17,18 . Motor Development Scale was used to analyzed the psychomotor profile of the children of this study.…”

The knowledge of psychomotor development of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may help in defining therapeutic approaches in order to minimize losses in their quality of life. The study objectives were to evaluate the quality of life and psychomotor profile of children with ADHD and check your correlation. Fourteen children, from seven to ten years, with ADHD combined type were evaluate using the scales PedsQL ™ and Motor Development Scale. Results showed adverse effects of ADHD on quality of life and a deficit in motor skills. Nine participants (64.2%) were classified in motor development as "Normal Medium", followed by the classification "Normal Low" in four (28.5%) and "Low" in one subject (7.1%). We observed a positive correlation between quality of life and psychomotor development of children with ADHD, especially in areas: fine motor and spatial organization with social and psychosocial aspects, gross motor control with the emotional and temporal organization with the emotional, psychosocial and overall quality of life. Key words: quality of life, child development, ADHD.Qualidade de vida e perfil psicomotor de crianças com transtorno de déficit de atenção e hiperatividade (TDAH) RESUMO O conhecimento sobre desenvolvimento psicomotor das crianças com TDAH pode auxiliar nas propostas terapêuticas, a fim de minimizar os prejuízos em sua qualidade de vida. Os objetivos do estudo foram avaliar a qualidade de vida e o perfil psicomotor de crianças com TDAH e verificar sua correlação. Quatorze crianças, de sete a dez anos, com TDAH do tipo combinado foram avaliadas pelas escalas PedsQL ™ e Escala de Desenvolvimento Motor. Os resultados mostraram impactos negativos do TDAH na qualidade de vida e déficit nas habilidades motoras. Nove participantes (64,2%) se classificaram com

“…To create a summary score of overall quality of life, the 23 items were computed, which includes the four domains of the tool 18. This questionnaire was validated into Portuguese by Klatchoian et al for children and adolescents (aged between 2 and 18 years) 19. It was applied in a classroom with a capacity of about 30 adolescents, with the assistance of at least two examiners.…”

Objective: To compare body composition, hemodynamic parameters, health-related physical fitness, and health-related quality of life of adolescents with anthropometric diagnosis of overweight, obesity, and severe obesity. Methods: 220 adolescents with excess body weight were enrolled. They were beginners in a intervention program that included patients based on age, availability, presence of excess body weight, place of residence, and agreement to participate in the study. This study collected anthropometric and hemodynamic variables, health-related physical fitness, and health-related quality of life of the adolescents. To compare the three groups according to nutritional status, parametric and non-parametric tests were applied. Significance level was set at p<0.05. Results: There was no significant difference in resting heart rate, health-related physical fitness, relative body fat, absolute and relative lean mass, and health-related quality of life between overweight, obese, and severely obese adolescents (p>0.05). Body weight, body mass index, waist and hip circumference, and systolic blood pressure increased as degree of excess weightincreased (p<0.05). Dyastolic blood pressure of the severe obesity group was higher than the other groups (p<0.05). There was an association between the degree of excess weight and the prevalence of altered blood pressure (overweight: 12.1%; obesity: 28.1%; severe obesity: 45.5%; p<0.001). The results were similar when genders were analyzed separately. Conclusion: Results suggest that overweight adolescents presented similar results compared to obese and severely obese adolescents in most of the parameters analyzed.
