Abstract

The Web-based Executive Functioning Questionnaire (Webexec) is a brief scale developed to assess executive functions via online format. It has been used in different contexts, but its adaptation to other cultures is still restricted. This study aimed to perform a cross-cultural adaptation of the Webexec for a Brazilian sample considering the psychometric properties of the scale. This study used a sample of 295 Brazilian participants, with a mean age equal to 20.69 (SD = 6.030). This is a longitudinal study with reapplication of the scale six weeks after the test phase. Classical and contemporary methods were applied to analyze the psychometric properties of the Webexec. The results showed that the scale presented excellent psychometric properties for the Brazilian version, considering validity evidence based on the content and internal structure of Webexec, as well as reliability and precision. However, it is considered that other relational and experimental studies should be carried out with a larger sample size and for different population groups.

针对巴西样本的执行功能网络问卷（Webexec-BR）的跨文化改编。

基于网络的执行功能问卷（Webexec）是一种通过网络形式评估执行功能的简易量表。该量表已在不同环境中使用，但在其他文化中的应用仍受到限制。本研究旨在根据量表的心理测量特性，对巴西样本的 Webexec 进行跨文化改编。本研究使用了 295 名巴西参与者作为样本，他们的平均年龄为 20.69 岁（SD = 6.030）。这是一项纵向研究，在测试阶段结束六周后重新使用量表。研究采用了古典和现代方法来分析 Webexec 的心理测量特性。结果表明，巴西版本的量表具有良好的心理测量特性，考虑到了基于 Webexec 内容和内部结构的有效性证据，以及可靠性和精确性。不过，我们认为还应该针对不同的人群进行更多的样本研究和实验研究。
