摘要：Self-absorption is defined as an excessive perseveration of attention that one displays toward their own reflections. The Self-Absorption Scale (SAS) measures this negative deconstructive dimension of self-consciousness and distinguishes whether its focus is related to private or public aspects of oneself. The objective of this study was to adapt the SAS to Brazil and to gather evidences of factorial and convergent validity for the Scale. Seven hundred and twenty two Brazilian adults answered the translated version of SAS, the Self-Consciousness Scale (SCS), and the Rumination-Reflection Questionnaire (RRQ). Factor analysis revealed two main components (private and public self-absorption). The adapted SAS fulfilled expectations concerning factorial and convergent validity. It can be used in future research in Brazil. Keywords : self-consciousness; self-absorption; rumination; psychometrics; adaptation.
