Abstract

Background: Lifestyles built in pre-adolescence will influence all human development throughout the life cycle. Its diagnosis constitutes an effective need for the provision of nursing care in terms of school health. Objective: To translate, adapt and validate the FANTASTICO questionnaire for Portuguese pre-adolescents. Methodology: A process of translation and adaptation of the questionnaire was carried out using the Delphi technique. A specific computer base it was created. An exploratory study was carried out to evaluate the instrument’s psychometric properties. The process took place between January and July 2019. Results: The translated version and adapted by an expert panel maintained the 30 items of the original instrument. The exploratory study revealed that the instrument has good psychometric properties with a total Cronbach’s alpha of 0.72. Conclusion: The Portuguese version O Meu Estilo de Vida FANTASTICO (pre-adolescents) is a good measuring instrument to assess the lifestyles of Portuguese pre-adolescents.
