This study aimed for the semantic adaptation of the Young Schema Questionnaire - short form (YSQ-S3) to Brazilian Portuguese and presents preliminary data on the internal consistency of the instrument. It was an instrumental study that followed the steps of translation, synthesis, expert and focus group evaluation, back-translation and pilot study. It included a preliminary evidence study stage, in which the YSQ-S3 and a sociodemographic data sheet with 200 participants were analyzed for internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha. The results indicate that the Brazilian version of the YSQ-S3 presents good semantic adequacy. Overall internal consistency was rated as excellent. A validation study of this version is currently being carried out.

Keywords : Young Schema Questionnaire; Schema Therapy; Adaptation; Psychometry; Reliability.
