ABSTRACT Objective: to cross-culturally adapt the Student Nurse Stress Index to the Brazilian context. Method: this is a methodological study of translation and cross-cultural adaptation. We used a sample of specialists (n = 3) and nursing students (n = 40). Socioeconomic and academic questionnaires were used for data collection, assessment and the translated instrument (SNSI-Brazil). Results: most students were female (90.0%), single (87.5%), unemployed (80.0%), they studied on average 11 hours per week, slept 6 hours per day; and rated the face and the content of the instrument as very good, agreeing substantially (kappa = 0.74 and p-value < 0.01). The judges showed regular agreement in their assessments, and the SNSI-Brazil showed a good internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.80). Conclusion: The SNSI-Brazil was validated for face and content, has a good internal consistency if compared to versions used in other countries.
