Abstract

Cross-cultural adaptation is a process that involves the transfer of knowledge between different cultures. Therefore, for a psychological instrument to be used in another country, for example, it is necessary to follow methodological rigors for an effective final model. In the field of oncology, research on the concept of dignity is incipient in most of the countries and one of the precursors of this concept was the Canadian psychiatrist, Harvey Chochinov. A model called the Dignity Model was developed and resulted in an inventory (Patient Dignity Inventory). The objective of this research is to carry out a screening on the cross-cultural adaptation studies of the Patient's Dignity Inventory. It is an integrative literature review to verify the main studies published databases about validation of the Patient Dignity Inventory. MEDLINE, LILACS, Scielo and Google Scholar databases were used to track adaptation studies. The keywords "Patient Dignity Inventory" AND "Validation" OR "Cross Cultural" were used for the collection of articles. In the initial results, 121 articles were found. After applying all filters, 19 articles were found within the criteria selected for review. It was noticed that most of the studies used rigorous methods, resulting in inventories with satisfactory psychometric properties for use in another culture.
