Resumo: O objetivo do presente estudo é avaliar as características psicométricas da versão Brasileira do Physical Self Perception Profile – o PSPPb – no que respeita à sua validade e fiabilidade, e ainda aferir a sua adequação para a administração generalizada no Brasil. Participaram do estudo 401 adultos (idades compreendidas entre os 18 e 60 anos), 201 do sexo feminino e 200 do sexo masculino, com média de 23,45 ± 6,1 anos e 25,55 ± 8,54 anos respectivamente. Foram seguidos procedimentos standard para a tradução e adaptação transcultural do instrumento. Os dados foram analisados com recurso à Análise Fatorial Exploratória e revelaram uma estrutura fatorial mais semelhante à descrita na versão original obtida na população americana e diferente da encontrada em Portugal com a versão Portuguesa (PSPPp). A estatística descritiva e as correlações existentes entre as diferentes escalas corroboram os resultados de estudos anteriores, tendo o PSPPb demonstrado boa consistência interna com valores de Alfa de Cronbach na sua maioria superiores a 0,75. Tais resultados demonstram boas evidências que apontam no sentido de uma potencial validação do PSPPb tendo por base o modelo original de quatro subescalas; no entanto, são necessários mais estudos, com outras amostras da população Brasileira, de modo a possibilitar uma análise mais aprofundada da sua validade fatorial antes que se possa recomendar a sua utilização plena.

Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Brazilian version of the Physical Self Perception Profile - the PSPPb - with respect to their validity and reliability, and also to assess their suitability for general administration in Brazil. The study involved 401 adults (aged 18 to 60 years), 201 female and 200 male, mean 23.45 ± 6.1 years and 25.55 ± 8.54 years respectively. We followed standard procedures for translation and cultural adaptation of the instrument. Data was analyzed using exploratory factor analysis that revealed a factor structure similar to the one described in the original version of the instrument with U.S. population and different from the one found with the Portuguese version (PSPPp) in Portugal. Descriptive statistics and correlations between the different scales corroborate results from previous studies, with PSPPb showing good internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha values of Cronbach mostly above .75. The present study demonstrates good evidence pointing towards a potential validation PSPPb based on the original model of four subscales, however, more studies are needed with other samples of the Brazilian population, to enable further analyses of its factorial validity before being recommend for full use.
