To translate and validate the version for children and adolescents of the UPPS-P scale into Brazilian Portuguese.
After a five-step translation process, the final draft was submitted to a panel of 12 different specialties experts. Subsequently, the application of the scale was applied concomitantly with the "Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham Scale - Version IV" (SNAP-IV) and the "Child and Adolescent Behavior Inventory" (CABI) scale to analyze the correlation between them. Content Validity Index (CVI) and reliability were estimated by calculating internal consistency and analyzing its test-retest stability.
The items whose CVI was lower than 80% underwent a detailed analysis to verify the reason for the bad evaluation. Five items (3, 7, 11, 22 and 35) scored below 80% and were reassessed. There was high internal consistency in all parameters: Lack of premeditation (McDonald's omega = 0.806; Cronbach's alpha = 0.801), Negative Urgency (McDonald's omega = 0.838; Cronbach's alpha = 0.836), Sensation seeking (McDonald's omega = 0.826; Cronbach's alpha = 0.810), Lack of Perseverance (McDonald's omega = 0.800; Cronbach's alpha = 0.799) and Positive Urgency (McDonald's omega = 0.936; Cronbach's alpha = 0.934). A strong correlation was observed between UPPS-P features and impulsivity in behavioral assessments.
The Brazilian Portuguese version of the UPPS-P scale is a good instrument to assess impulsivity in children and adolescents.
将 UPPS-P 量表的儿童和青少年版本翻译并验证为巴西葡萄牙语版本。
经过五个步骤的翻译过程，最终草案提交给了 12 名不同专业的专家小组。随后，同时应用 UPPS-P 量表和“斯旺森、诺兰和佩勒姆量表 - 第四版”（SNAP-IV）以及“儿童和青少年行为量表”（CABI）来分析它们之间的相关性。通过计算内部一致性和分析其测试 - 重测稳定性来评估内容有效性指数（CVI）和可靠性。
CVI 低于 80%的项目进行了详细分析，以验证评估不佳的原因。五个项目（3、7、11、22 和 35）得分低于 80%，并重新评估。所有参数的内部一致性都很高：缺乏预谋（McDonald's omega=0.806；Cronbach's alpha=0.801），负性冲动（McDonald's omega=0.838；Cronbach's alpha=0.836），感觉寻求（McDonald's omega=0.826；Cronbach's alpha=0.810），缺乏坚持（McDonald's omega=0.800；Cronbach's alpha=0.799）和正性冲动（McDonald's omega=0.936；Cronbach's alpha=0.934）。在行为评估中，UPPS-P 特征与冲动之间观察到强烈的相关性。
巴西葡萄牙语版 UPPS-P 量表是评估儿童和青少年冲动的良好工具。
