| Итог: | Introduction: The study of the coping in childhood is considered important, as children learn the basic modes of human existence during this developmental stage, which will influence the way infants relate to the world and integrate their experiences. Given this scenario, the literature emphasizes the importance of deepen the knowledge about measurement instruments for children's coping strategies. Therefore, it is considered appropriate to provide Brazilian versions deriving from well-established researches in other cultures, such as the Kidcope self-report instrument, which allows to measure coping strategies used by children and adolescents aged 7 to 12 in stressful situations. Objective: To translate and carry out cross-cultural adaptation of such instrument to Brazilian portuguese. Method: This is a methodological and traversal research. Equivalence of items and concepts as well as semantics and operation has already been performed between the original instrument and the Brazilian version; and the measurement equivalence. Results: A good level of equivalence has been observed, including comparisons between the original instrument and the Brazilian version translated back to original language; this is particularly true regarding T2-R2 dyads. In regard to the operational equivalence, 33 children evaluated the adapted instrument as adequate and easy to understand. In the measurement, 150 children participated, with a mean age of approximately 9 years. It was verified that the strategies most used are those of active coping and avoidance, considered more effective by the participants. By means of the Cronbach's alpha, the value of 0.315 internal consistency was found for Kidcope items. Conclusion: Despite the limitations related to the low reliability of the instrument, it is considered that it meets the proposed objective. Configuring yourself as an instrument for screening coping strategies of children and adolescents in the face of stressful situations, both in clinical and research contexts. |
