Abstract:

Objective: To develop and validate a KAP (knowledge, attitude and practice) instrument instrument for caregivers of children up to 36 months of age who are monitored by the Family Health Strategy. Method: Methodological study conducted in three stages: integrative review, preparation of the initial version and content validation by 29 judges. The instrument was validated for content and appearance. The Content Validity Index (CVI) and the FINN and Gwe-AC1 coefficients were calculated to assess inter-judge agreement. Results: The overall CVI values of the 39-item instrument were: CVI (Clarity) equal to 0.91 and CVI (Relevance) equal to 0.95. The final version was obtained by 19 questions (knowledge), 10 (attitude) and 10 (practice), involving the themes: caries, diet, oral hygiene, fluoride, breastfeeding, artificial feeding, milk teeth, and the need to take the baby to the dentist. Conclusion: The instrument produced can be used because it has potential for use depending on the more global assessment of its psychometric properties.
