The Body Understanding Measure for Pregnancy Scale (BUMPs) is a scale developed and validated for British pregnant women to assess body satisfaction during pregnancy. The aim of this study was to perform a cross-cultural adaptation and verify the psychometric properties of BUMPs for Brazilian adult pregnant women. The cross-cultural adaptation was performed using translation, back-translation, expert committee, expert analysis, and pre-testing, which showed easy comprehension by pregnant women. Psychometric analyses were evaluated in a sample of 618 pregnant women (31.08 ± 4.94 years old). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses resulted in 19 items and three factors, with satisfactory fit indices. BUMPs presented an invariant measurement across white vs. nonwhite women and across the three gestational trimesters. BUMPs showed good indicators of convergent, internal consistency, and test-retest reproducibility validity. It was concluded that the Brazilian version of BUMPs has adequate psychometric properties for Brazilian pregnant women, being an excellent instrument for analyzing body satisfaction in this population, facilitating additional investigations into these constructs.
妊娠体像量表（BUMPs）是为英国孕妇开发和验证的一种量表，用于评估孕妇在怀孕期间的身体满意度。本研究的目的是对巴西成年孕妇进行跨文化适应性调整，并验证 BUMPs 的心理测量特性。跨文化适应性调整使用翻译、回译、专家委员会、专家分析和预测试进行，结果表明孕妇易于理解。心理测量分析在 618 名孕妇（31.08±4.94 岁）样本中进行。探索性和验证性因素分析得出 19 个项目和 3 个因素，具有满意的拟合指数。BUMPs 在白人和非白人女性以及三个妊娠 trimester 之间具有不变的测量结果。BUMPs 具有良好的收敛性、内部一致性和重测信度有效性指标。结论是，巴西版 BUMPs 具有足够的心理测量特性，适用于巴西孕妇，是分析该人群身体满意度的优秀工具，便于进一步研究这些结构。
