MUITANA, Gérson O. E.  e  AMATO, Cibelle A. de la H.. Adaptation and content validity of the phonological awareness test for Mozambique. Psicol. teor. prat. [online]. 2022, vol.24, n.1, pp.1-23. ISSN 1516-3687.  https://doi.org/10.5935/1980-6906/ePTPPA14056.en.

Phonological awareness is an essential skill for performance in reading, writing, and mathematics. Therefore, it is suggested that it be monitored and evaluated preferably during preschool as a form of early intervention to prevent learning difficulties after formal education. However, it is necessary to have qualified instruments for its evaluation and, in Mozambique, none assesses this skill. Therefore, this study aimed to culturally adapt the Phonological Awareness Test by Oral production (PATOP) to the Mozambican context and was carried out in two phases: semantic equivalence and content validation. The Content Validity Index (CVI) was 0.96; although it is considered excellent, further studies need to be carried out to verify other validity, reliability, and standardization parameters. Nevertheless, it is expected that the instrument contributes to the evaluation of phonological awareness and that, above all, the skill is part of activities of stimulation and intervention in preschoolers.

Palavras-chave : cultural adaptation; content validity; phonological awareness; Mozambique; evaluation.
