“…With this paper, we aim to describe the MiDAS translation and cultural adaptation process to European Portuguese (PT) and to present a final MiDAS-PT version, that was tested by several health professionals from different backgrounds and in different dementia care settings (clinical and non-clinical). The developers of MiDAS explored the procedures used for outcome measure translation and cultural adaptation and derived a ten-step procedure recommendation (Ridder et al, 2015). We followed the latter, as closely as possible, in order to develop the MiDAS-PT.…”

Introduction: Music in Dementia Assessment Scales (MiDAS) is an observational, dementia-specific, visual analogue scale, developed to measure musical experiences of patients with dementia (PwD). It was derived from qualitative data of focus groups and interviews with PwD, carers, care home staff, and music therapists. Since its publication, there was a great interest in using MiDAS in several European countries, including Portugal. However, no adaptation to Portuguese language and culture was yet available.In this manuscript, we aim to describe the process of translation and cultural adaptation of MiDAS to European Portuguese, presenting the final MiDAS-PT version. Method:We have followed a rigorous ten step approach, consisting of a Preparation stage; elaboration of two Forward Translations; Synthesis of the latter versions; Back Translation by a bilingual professional translator; Revision of that version by the original author of MiDAS; Harmonization with other versions of MiDAS in different languages; Testing and Debriefing of the final version with volunteer health professionals; Consensus meetings; Proofreading and finally the Reporting of the process. Results: No major changes have been made to the actual content text of MiDAS. Some minor adjustments were made in wording and additional instruction details were added in order to increase clarity and adequacy to the Portuguese setting.Discussion: Overall, Portuguese health professionals considered the instrument user friendly and intuitive in terms of content, structure and layout. To allow the use of MiDAS-PT for research and clinical purposes, the next step will be a study of its psychometric properties.

“…John Carpente and Gustavo Gattino (p. 297) report on the validation of a musiccentered assessment profile specifically developed for the assessment of therapeutic change with clients with autism spectrum disorders. The new instrument adds to a growing number of validated tests for change assessment (Hald, Baker, & Ridder, 2017;Ridder, McDermott, & Orrell, 2017) or diagnostic purposes (Bergmann, Sappok, Diefenbacher, & Dziobek, 2016). As the authors note, specific, well-validated assessments are needed to maintain the "creative tension between artistic and scientific domains" as well as to "provide professional accountability" (p. 309).…”
