Abstract:

The aim of the present study was to transculturally adapt the Body-related Self-Conscious Emotions Fitness instrument (BSE-FIT) to the Brazilian Portuguese language. The adaptation process involved the following steps: translation of the BSE-FIT into Portuguese; evaluation by the Judges Committee; back-translation; semantic analysis; and pre-test. The members of the Committee of Judges pointed out difficulties in translating the term "fitness" and questioned that the meaning of the word in the Portuguese language is broader than "physical form", also relating it to what the body is capable of doing. In the semantic analysis, there was observed difficulty in understanding item 4 (proud of my superior physical preparation) and the item was changde to "proud of my superior physical preparation" to facilitate understanding. In the pre-test stage, there were no difficulties in completing or understanding the items and the process of cross-cultural adaptation was finalized. At the end of this process, the semantic, idiomatic, conceptual and cultural equivalences of the adapted instrument were reached. Face and content sources of validity were also presented . However, in order for BSE-FIT to be used for the Brazilian population, it is necessary to validate the metric properties of the BSE-FIT, which is already under development.
