Resumo: INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have suggested that lack of insight into mental disorder can be an important predicting factor involving the course of psychotic disorders mainly regarding compliance with treatment. The Scale to Assess Unawareness of Mental Disorder-SUMD is a semi-structured open interview that evaluates global insight, insight into illness and insight into symptoms. The SUMD has shown good reliability and validity and has demonstrated certain advantages over previous measures of insight, suggesting the usefulness of a multidimensional view of this complex concept. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to translate, adapt and test the reliability of the SUMD in schizophrenic patients. METHODS: This study involved 35 schizophrenic patients according to the DSM-IV criteria, who where under treatment in the Schizophrenia Program of the Federal University of São Paulo. Two independent examiners conducted the reliability study simultaneously. RESULTS: The results demonstrated that the SUMD achieved a good intraclass reliability coefficients between investigators - ICC ranged from 0.55 to 0.97 - for the general items to assess awareness of mental disorder and 0.56 to 0.98 - for the symptoms items. DISCUSSION: These coefficients were similar to those found by the researchers who developed this scale. The SUMD scale has proven to be easily applied and may be deemed an useful instrument with good psychometrics capacities in researches involving schizophrenic subjects.

A Escala para Avaliar a Ausência de Noção do Transtorno Mental - SUMD é uma entrevista aberta semi-estruturada que avalia o insight global do paciente, para a doença e para seus sintomas. A SUMD tem demonstrado boa confiabilidade e validade devido a sua característica multidimensional e, também, apresentado vantagens em relação a outros instrumentos que avaliam o insight. OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo foi traduzir, adaptar e testar a confiabilidade da SUMD em pacientes com esquizofrenia. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados 35 pacientes com diagnóstico de esquizofrenia pelo DSM-IV, do Programa de Esquizofrenia da UNIFESP/EPM, através da SUMD, por dois entrevistadores independentes. RESULTADOS: Os resultados do estudo de confiabilidade demonstraram que a SUMD apresentou bons coeficientes de confiabilidade intraclasse entre os investigadores, com coeficientes variando entre 0,55 e 0,97 para os itens gerais e de 0,56 a 0,98 para os itens de sintomas específicos. DISCUSSÃO: Estes coeficientes foram similares aos encontrados pelos investigadores que desenvolveram a escala. A SUMD mostrou ser de fácil aplicação, demonstrando ser um instrumento útil e com boas propriedades psicométricas na avaliação do insight em pacientes com esquizofrenia em nosso meio.Federal University of São Paulo Paulista Medical SchoolFederal University of São Paulo Paulista Medical School Department of PsychiatryUNIFESP, Paulista Medical SchoolUNIFESP, EPM, Department of PsychiatrySciELOAssociação Brasileira de Psiquiatria - ABPUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Fiss, Nina [UNIFESP]Chaves, Ana Cristina [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:31:36Z2015-06-14T13:31:36Z2005-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion143-145application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1516-44462005000200014Revista Brasileira de Psiquiatria.
