OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to develop and validate a Portuguese version of the Menopause Representations Questionnaire (MenoSentations-Q), a self-report measure to assess cognitive appraisal of menopause, based on cognitive components of the Self-Regulation Model and the results from a previous Portuguese qualitative study.
METHODS
A total of 309 Portuguese women, aged 45-65 years, completed the questionnaire. Factorial, convergent, discriminant, and criterion validity, as well as reliability and psychometric sensitivity, were studied.
RESULTS
MenoSentations-Q has demonstrated acceptable factorial, convergent, and discriminant validity, as well as good values of sensitivity and reliability for the four factors (i.e. identity; positive consequences; negative consequences; and control, awareness, and cause). Criterion validity was only obtained for two factors.
CONCLUSIONS
MenoSentations-Q, a brief measure of menopausal representations, in this sample of Portuguese women provides information to inform interventions that might include challenging unhelpful menopausal representations. This instrument could be used in both clinical and community settings.
目的
本研究旨在开发和验证 Menopause Representations Questionnaire（MenoSentations-Q）的葡萄牙语版本，该问卷是一种自我报告式的评估工具，用于评估基于自我调节模型的认知成分和先前葡萄牙语定性研究结果的对绝经期的认知评估。
方法
共有 309 名年龄在 45-65 岁的葡萄牙女性完成了该问卷。本研究考察了该问卷的因子结构、聚合效度、区分效度、效标效度、信度和心理测量敏感性。
结果
MenoSentations-Q 具有可接受的因子结构、聚合效度和区分效度，对于四个因子（即身份认同、积极后果、消极后果和控制、意识和原因）具有良好的敏感性和信度值。仅对于两个因子获得了效标效度。
结论
在本研究的葡萄牙女性样本中，MenoSentations-Q 是一种简短的绝经期认知评估工具，为干预措施提供了信息，这些干预措施可能包括挑战无益的绝经期认知。该工具可用于临床和社区环境。
