People with development disorders and intellectual disability usually present behavioral problems in different levels of severity. This impairs their development, social adaptation and possibilities of inclusion. The most frequent procedures to identify behavioral problems are behavioral observation and standardized behavioral inventories. In Brazil standardized instruments to evaluate behavioral problems in patients with atypical development are scarce. The objective of this study was to translate into Brazilian Portuguese and make a cultural adaptation of The Behavior Problems Inventory (BPI-01). The sample was composed of 60 children and adolescents (30 of them with typical development and 30 with atypical development), age range 6-16 years old, their respective caretakers and 3 professionals of the development disorders field. The instruments for data collection were the following: a) Brazilian version of The Behavior Problems Inventory (BPI-01), b) Brazilian version of Child Behavior Checklist for ages 6-18 (CBCL/6-18), c) Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, d) Autism Screening Questionnaire (ASQ). The coefficients of content validity obtained through the assessment of the items by referees based in objectivity, plainness and accuracy criteria ranged from 0,7 and 0,8 (70 to 80% of agreement). Internal consistency indicators among items of BPI-01, obtained through Cronbach‟s alpha, reached a coefficient of 0,65 in the scale of self-injury behaviors, 0,91 in the scale of stereotyped behaviors and 0,82 in the scale of aggressive/destructive behaviors. To assess the relation between sensibility and specificity among frequency values of the BPI-01 scales it was used the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC Curve). Preliminary results of this analysis identified sensibility values at 0,76 and specificity at 0,06 for a 0,5 point score in the scale of self-injury behaviors; sensibility at 0,40 and specificity at 0,03 for a 1,5 point score in the scale of stereotyped behaviors; sensibility at 0,23 and specificity at 0,03 for a 3,5 points score in the scale of aggressive/destructive behavior. A Spearman analysis made with BPI-01 scores and the scores of ASQ and CBCL/6-18 reached statistically significant coefficients of moderate to high level. Results show indicators of proper convergent validity among the scales of BPI-01 and CBCL/6-18 and ASQ inventories. The Cronbach‟s alpha coefficients displayed adequate statistical reliability properties of the Brazilian version of the instrument. Although it is necessary to broaden the sample, these preliminary values obtained through the ROC method indicate adequate indexes of sensibility and specificity in the scales of self- njury and stereotypy with cut-points at 0,5 and 1,5 among the typical and atypical groups respectively.
