Abstract(s)
A Escala do Impacto da Dor na Família é a versão portuguesa da The
Family Impact of Pain Scale (FIPS; Newton-John, 2005), um questionário
de auto-resposta composto por 10 itens que permite avaliar o impacto
da dor crónica na família. A partir de uma amostra de 51 sujeitos com
dor crónica foram realizados estudos de tradução e adaptação para a
população portuguesa, assim como estudos descritivos, de precisão e
de validade de constructo. Os resultados demonstram uma elevada con sistência interna dos itens (α = .91). Na análise fatorial confirmatória
não se verificou uma correspondência com os fatores da escala original.
As correlações, com base no coeficiente de Spearman, permitem concluir
que existe uma relação estatisticamente significativa entre o impacto
da dor crónica na família e as crenças de autoeficácia e a depressão (r = -.754, p < .01; r = .332, p < .05, respetivamente). Futuramente, o
estudo da dor crónica na família deverá contemplar, não só os sujeitos
com dor crónica, como também os seus familiares.
The Escala do Impacto da Dor Crónica na Família is the Portuguese version of The Family Impact of Pain Scale (FIPS; Newton-John, 2005), a 10-item self-report scale assessing the impact of chronic pain in the family. Based on a sample of 51 subjects with chronic pain, studies of translation and adaptation for the Portuguese population were performed, as well as descriptive, reliability, and construct validity studies. The results reveal strong reliability for the items (α = .91). In confirmatory factor analysis it wasn’t found a correspondence with the factor structure of the original scale. Correlations based on Spearman’s coefficient allow us to conclude that there is a statistical significant relationship between the impact of chronic pain in the family and the self-efficacy beliefs and depression (r = -.754, p < .01; r = .332, p < .05, respectively). In the future, the study of chronic pain in the family should include not only subjects with chronic pain as well as their relatives.
