ALVARENGA, Marco Antônio Silva et al. Content Validity Evidence of the Beck Cognitive Insight Scale Brazilian Version (BCIS). Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.2, pp.872-895.  Epub 03-Mayo-2024. ISSN 1808-4281.  https://doi.org/10.12957/epp.2022.68658.

Cognitive or clinical insight refers to the ability to assign meaning to symptoms present in psychotic disorders, especially those related to the schizophrenia spectrum. The Beck Cognitive Insight Scale (BCIS) was developed to support the treatment of people with impaired insight. However, this instrument has not yet been adapted to the Brazilian context. This study aimed to make the cross-cultural adaptation of the BCIS into Brazilian Portuguese through evidence of content validity. Six judges evaluated the items of this scale regarding clarity of language, practical relevance, theoretical relevance and item-dimension relatedness. The BCIS presented satisfactory agreement in the indices of content validity and homogeneity of responses regarding the analysis of clarity of language, practical relevance and theoretical relevance and agreement between item-theoretical dimension, reformulating some items. The back-translation of the scale received a positive endorsement from one of the original authors. However, it is still necessary to verify the psychometric properties for this version of the BCIS.

Palabras clave : cognitive insight; schizophrenia; content evidence..
