Abstract
Abstract Introduction: The International Classification of Functionality, Disability and Health (ICF) determines that for any health condition, functionality is the result of the multidirectional relationship between the positive aspects of the components of body structures and functions, activities, participation and contextual factors, encompassing personal and environmental factors. Objective: To translate and culturally adapt the “F-Words Tools” into Brazilian Portuguese. Methods: Permission to translate was granted by the authors. After reading and understanding the instruments, a researcher performed a non-certified translation into Brazilian Portuguese. Next, the back translation into English was done by a specialist in both languages without prior knowledge of the original versions. The result of the back translation was sent to the authors of the instrument for verification of semantics and content. Based on the authors' recommendations and the results of translation analyses, there was no need for cultural adaptation. Results: The back translation was approved by the authors, indicating that the Brazilian Portuguese version of all instruments was adequate. The translated titles are: Termo de Compromisso (Agreement), Colagem (Collage), Perfil (Profile) and Folha de Metas (Goal Sheet). The ICF framework was entitled: “The ICF model and My Favorite Words”. The material is available free of charge at the CanChild website. Conclusion: The translation into Brazilian Portuguese allows materials to be used in Brazil to disseminate the concepts of the ICF and the “F-words” in clinical and family settings.

The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), published in 2001 by the World Health Organization (WHO), determined that for any health condition, functionality is the result of the multidimensional relation between the positive aspects of the components of body structures and functions, activities, participation and contextual factors that encompass personal and environmental factors.[1]
The back translation result was sent to CanChild for the authors to determine the semantics and content and decide whether or not cultural adaptation was needed

The International Classification of Functionality, Disability and Health (ICF) determines that for any health condition, functionality is the result of the multidirectional relationship between the positive aspects of the components of body structures and functions, activities, participation and contextual factors, encompassing personal and environmental factors. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), published in 2001 by the World Health Organization (WHO), determined that for any health condition, functionality is the result of the multidimensional relation between the positive aspects of the components of body structures and functions, activities, participation and contextual factors that encompass personal and environmental factors.[1] assessment instruments or tools that allow identifying and applying the concepts of functionality have been created and implemented over the years in order to favor practices based on a biopsychosocial approach In this respect, it is important for the family to be included in the care process,[2] as a facilitator and enhancer of relevant results focused on the needs of children and their families. Families enrolled in this type of program exhibited a decline in stress, anxiety and depression.[5]
