Resumo: This work aimed to adapt the Fear of COVID-19 Scale to Brazilian Portuguese, to perform Confirmatory Factor Analysis, to seek evidence of validity based on the relationship with stress and to establish standards for the interpretation of the scale scores. Participated 1,000 adults of both sexes, with an average age of 30.9 (SD = 12.06). The analysis demonstrated that all adjustment indexes were satisfactory, confirming the scale's unidimensionality. The average was 22.2 points (minimum of 7 and maximum of 35 points). Fear of COVID-19 Scale presented convergent validity with the Perceived Stress Scale and strata for the classification of fear intensity in scale were proposed.

Participaram 1.000 adultos, de ambos os sexos, com idade média de 30,9 (DP = 12,06). Os resultados evidenciaram que a análise fatorial confirmatória demonstrou que todos os índices de ajuste foram satisfatórios, confirmando a unidimensionalidade da escala. A média na Escala de Medo da COVID-19 foi de 22,2 pontos (mínimo de 7 e máximo de 35 pontos), o que representou medo em nível moderado. A escala apresentou validade convergente com Escala de Estresse Percebido e propôs-se estratos de classificação da intensidade do medo na escala com base na normatização dos escores desse instrumento.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2020-07-06info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/89810.1590/SciELOPreprints.898porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/898/1261Copyright (c) 2020 Andre Faro, Luanna dos Santos Silva, Daiane Nunes dos Santos, Amanda Lima Barros Feitosahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFaro, AndreSilva, Luanna dos SantosSantos, Daiane Nunes dosFeitosa, Amanda Lima Barrosreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2020-07-03T18:17:50Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/898Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2020-07-03T18:17:50SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
