OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to: (1) confirm the reliability and validity of a single factor structure for the 16-item FES-I within a Brazilian context; and (2) confirm the reliability and validity of the abbreviated Short FES-I (7 items) within a Brazilian context.
METHODS
We compared the reliability and construct validity of the unidimensional FES-I and the Short FES-I among older Brazilians. Our analyses included confirmatory factor analyses, and discriminatory validity and internal reliability consistency comparisons.
RESULTS
The unidimensional FES-I (α = 0.94; CFI = 0.98; RMSEA = 0.08) and the Short FES-I (α = 0.87; CFI = 0.98; RMSEA = 0.07) are equally valid and reliable measures.
CONCLUSION
The FES-I is best represented as a unifactorial structure yielding a total Fear of Falling score. Researchers and healthcare professionals can also use the equally robust Short-FES-I to best minimize responder burden.
目的
本研究旨在：(1) 在巴西背景下验证 16 项 FES-I 单因素结构的可靠性和有效性；(2) 验证缩短版 FES-I（7 项）在巴西背景下的可靠性和有效性。
方法
我们比较了多维 FES-I 和缩短版 FES-I 在巴西老年人中的可靠性和结构有效性。我们的分析包括验证性因子分析，以及判别有效性和内部可靠性一致性比较。
结果
多维 FES-I（α=0.94；CFI=0.98；RMSEA=0.08）和缩短版 FES-I（α=0.87；CFI=0.98；RMSEA=0.07）是同样有效和可靠的测量工具。
结论
FES-I 最好表示为产生总跌倒恐惧得分的单因素结构。研究人员和医疗保健专业人员也可以使用同样可靠的缩短版 FES-I 来最大限度地减少应答者的负担。
