Despite Brazil's high levels of religious involvement, there is a scarcity of validated religiousness/spirituality (R/S) measures in Portuguese, particularly multidimensional ones. This study presents the validation of the Portuguese version of the "Brief Multidimensional Measure in Religiousness and Spirituality" (BMMRS) within the Brazilian context. Inpatients (262) and caregivers (389) at two hospitals of Brazil answered the BMMRS, the DUREL-p, and a sociodemographic questionnaire. The internal and convergent validity and test-retest reliability for major dimensions were good. Discriminant validity was high (except for the Forgiveness dimension). The Portuguese version of the BMMRS is a reliable and valid instrument to assess multiple R/S dimensions in clinical and non-clinical samples.
尽管巴西的宗教参与程度很高，但葡萄牙语中经过验证的宗教信仰/精神性（R/S）测量工具却很匮乏，尤其是多维测量工具。本研究展示了在巴西背景下对《宗教信仰与精神性简短多维测量量表》（BMMRS）葡萄牙语版本的验证情况。巴西两家医院的262名住院患者和389名护理人员回答了BMMRS、DUREL-p以及一份社会人口学问卷。主要维度的内部效度、收敛效度和重测信度良好。区分效度较高（宽恕维度除外）。BMMRS的葡萄牙语版本是一种可靠且有效的工具，可用于评估临床和非临床样本中的多个R/S维度。
