摘要：The checklist of the Movement Assessment Battery for Children second edition (MABC-2-Checklist) was developed as an instrument for screening children with motor difficulties. Objective: To translate, adapt and verify (1) the face, content and construct validity and the reliability of the Portuguese version of the MABC-2 Checklist; as well as to investigate the usefulness of the MABC-2-Checklist as a screening instrument in Brazil. Methods: Participated in the study 47 health related professional (physical educators and physical therapists), 20 parents, and 532 children (girls: 276; boys: 256) between 5 and 12 year-old. Results: indicated that the adapted version of the MABC-2-Checklist to Portuguese demonstrated convergent and discriminant validity (p values ≤ 0,05); excellent reliability (all sections, α= 0,94) and high indices of inter-evaluators reliability. Conclusion: the adapted Portuguese version of the Checklist-MABC-2 demonstrated validity and reliability to screen children with motor difficulties and to further refereed to more complete assessments and intervention.
