Objectives: to validate the content and test the applicability and understanding of the Families’ Importance in Nursing Care–Nurses’ Attitudes (FINC-NA) to Brazilian culture. Method: this is methodological research that involved translation, synthesis, back-translation, equivalence assessment (semantic, idiomatic, conceptual and experimental), content validity, pre-test and report submission. Thirteen judges assessed the translation equivalence and the instrument’s content validity. Applicability, understanding of items and internal consistency were verified in a pre-test with 37 nurses. In the analyses, Fleiss’ Kappa (FK) and Cronbach’s alpha were used. Results: agreement among judges was considered high in relation to clarity, objectivity, relevance, accuracy, and simplicity (FK ≥0.72). In the pre-test, Cronbach’s alpha of the four domains (α ≥0.81) and the general internal consistency (0.86) were high. Conclusion: the cultural adaptation of FINC-NA to Brazilian culture was considered adequate and the instrument could be psychometrically tested.
