Abstract(s)
As diferentes opções disponibilizadas aos
doentes no âmbito da saúde actualmente
implicam em processos de tomada de decisão
cada vez mais difíceis podendo desencadear
confl ito no decorrer da mesma. Foi
nosso propósito, com este estudo, dispor
de um instrumento que nos possibilite
conhecer esta variável. Assim, propusemos-
-nos efetuar a adaptação transcultural e
avaliar as propriedades psicométricas da
versão portuguesa da Decisional Conflict
Scale, que visa obter informações sobre
a tomada de decisão e os factores que
influenciam a escolha tomada. A amostra
cons tuída por 521 estudantes de Enfermagem,
teve como foco a tomada de decisão
na síndrome gripal. Os resultados obtidos
nos testes de confiabilidade revelam boa
consistência interna para o total dos itens
(α Cronbach=0,94). O estudo psicométrico
permite-nos afirmar que a versão em
Português da Decisional Conflict Scale,
que denominamos Escala de Conflitos de
Tomadas de Decisão em Saúde (ECTDS), é
um instrumento fidedigno e válido.
The different options available to patients in the health environment now are implicated in increasingly difficult processes of decision-making, and may trigger conflict about them. This study had as its purpose, to develop an instrument that enabled us to know about this variable. Therefore, we decided to effect a transcultural adaptation and evaluation of psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the Decisional Conflict Scale, which seeks information about decision-making and the factors that influence the choices made. The sample consisted of 521 nursing students, with a focus on decision-making regarding the flu syndrome. The results obtained on the reliability tests showed good internal consistency for all items (Cronbach α=0.94). The psychometric study allowed us to affirm that the Portuguese version of the Decisional Conflict Scale, which we call Scale of Conflicts in Decision-Making in Health (ECTDS), was a reliable and valid instrument.
