RESUMO:

Introduction Epidemiological studies are important to allow specific measures or public health interventions. Thus, this study aims at constructing and validating the instrument from screening for masticatory disorders in older adults (RAMI) to provide actions which may result in the adequate assistance to this group of people. Methods Validation study. First step: validity evidence based on test content. Definition of the construct and elaboration of the questions by a panel of experts and evaluation of the representativeness and relevance of the items in relation to the construct by a committee of 28 experts. Analysis performed through the Content Validity Index for Items (CVI-I) and the Content Validity Index (CVI). Second stage: validity evidence based on response processes. Application of the questionnaire in 40 elderly (s 60 years), using the cognitive interview. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the responses was carried out. Third stage: validity evidence based on the internal structure. Application of the instrument in 295 elderly patients and carried out the confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA) to fit the model. Results The first version of RAMI consisted of 16 issues related to chewing. The CVI and CVI-I were satisfactory, only one question (CVI-I = 0.57) was excluded. The instrument with 15 questions was well evaluated by the elderly needing minor adjustments of morphosyntax. After the CFA, adjustments were made in its internal structure resulting in the 9 questions model. Conclusion RAMI presented good evidence of validity in its content, response processes and internal structure.
