Abstract
Analyzing violent events in the amorous trajectory of young people mobilizes researchers worldwide. The scope of this study is to perform the cross-cultural adaptation and content validation of the Canadian Parcours Amoureux des Jeunes (PAJ) inventory in the Brazilian context. It is a methodological study with the following steps: (a) translation and back-translation; (b) committee of experts (10) for analysis of equivalence, clarity and matching percentages; (c) calculation of the Content Validity Index / CVI. This analysis generated Pilot version III (d) submitted to a pre-test group of 36 adolescents aged 14 to 24 of both sexes to obtain cultural, conceptual, semantic and idiomatic equivalence. The PAJ showed adequate content validity (CVI 0.97). In section 1 (sociodemographic aspects of youths and families inherent to the Canadian context), the questions were appropriate to the Brazilian context shown by the low value of the CVI. Cross-cultural adaptation and content validation processes showed that the PAJ had adequate clarity and equivalence properties. This step makes it viable to conduct psychometric analysis to assess the replicability and reliability of the instrument to be applied in the Brazilian context.
