This study aimed to adapt the Satisfaction with Family Life Scale (SWFLS) to Brazilian Portuguese, supported by factorial validity and internal consistency evidence. Study 1 included 216 respondents, aged between 18 and 92 years (M=38.43; SD=15.90), of whom 71.6% were female, who answered to the SWFLS and sociodemographic questions. The exploratory factorial analysis indicated a one-factor structure with 70% of Total Variance Explained and a Cronbach's alpha of .89. In Study 2, the sample was composed of 214 respondents, aged between 18 and 77 years (M=29.8; SD=11.65), the majority female (69.6%), who answered the same instruments as Study 1. The Confirmatory Factor Analysis confirmed a single-factor structure, presenting a Cronbach's alpha of .89. It was concluded that the instrument has adequate psychometric properties, representing a valuable tool for use in future research with families.

Keywords : psychological testing; satisfaction; family.
