The aim of this study was to create an adaptation of the Revised Knox Preschool Play Scale (RKPPS) for the Brazilian population, as well as to apply the instrument with statistical analysis to verify the preliminary intra-rater and inter-rater reliability and repeatability of the instrument. The instructions presented by Beaton et al. regarding adaptation of instruments were followed to perform a cross-cultural adaptation of the RKPPS. A preliminary test of the Portuguese version was performed on 18 children with no motor, cognitive or sensory impairment. The video recordings of this administration were analysed on two separate occasions by two examiners within a 5-month interval, using the scores suggested by Pfeifer. The Spearman's test was used in the statistical analysis of the obtained data. The author of the RKPPS agreed with the small necessary cultural adaptations. The Spearman test revealed a high correlation coefficient and good significance levels for both intra- and inter-raters values. This study demonstrated the reliability and repeatability of the Brazilian version of the RKPPS. This is a preliminary study and further studies are needed in order to validate the scale to be administered in the Brazilian population.
本研究的目的是为巴西人群改编修订版诺克斯学前儿童游戏量表（RKPPS），并运用该工具进行统计分析，以验证该工具初步的评分者内信度、评分者间信度及可重复性。遵循比顿等人提出的关于工具改编的说明，对RKPPS进行跨文化改编。对18名无运动、认知或感觉障碍的儿童进行了葡萄牙语版本的初步测试。两位考官在5个月的间隔内，分两次对此次测试的视频记录进行分析，采用法伊弗建议的评分标准。对所得数据进行统计分析时使用了斯皮尔曼检验。RKPPS的作者认可进行少量必要的文化改编。斯皮尔曼检验显示，评分者内和评分者间的值均具有较高的相关系数和良好的显著性水平。本研究证明了巴西版RKPPS的信度和可重复性。这是一项初步研究，为验证该量表在巴西人群中的适用性，还需要进一步的研究。
