Resumo: OBJECTIVES: To describe the development of the "spirituality, religiousness, and personal beliefs" for the WHOQOL-SRBP instrument, and to report the main findings of research conducted with focus groups composed of subjects representative of the most common religious practices, patients, and healthcare professionals. METHODS: The several stages of the development of the WHOQOL-SRBP instrument are described: literature review, focus groups, elaboration of national questions, elaboration of consensual items, pilot-study development, pilot-study application, question performance analysis, development of the definitive instrument, and field testing. The focus group stage was conducted in Porto Alegre, Southern Brazil, and included 15 groups (n=142). These included separate groups for healthcare professionals, acute, chronic, and terminal patients, religious groups (Catholics, Evangelicals, Afro-Brazilians, and Spiritualists), and atheists. Each group discussed facets suggested by a group of "experts", as well as any further dimensions spontaneously raised by group participants. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The focus group technique proved itself adequate for the collection of different opinions from the participants, allowing for the testing of the hypotheses proposed by the researchers, redirecting and/or broadening previously established concepts. In addition, it highlighted the importance of the discussion of the spiritual dimension for patient's lives.

OBJETIVO: Descrever o desenvolvimento do módulo "espiritualidade, religiosidade e crenças pessoais" pelo instrumento WHOQOL-SRPB e relatar os principais achados da pesquisa realizada com grupos focais constituídos por pessoas representativas das práticas religiosas mais freqüentes, pacientes e profissionais da saúde. MÉTODOS: São descritas as várias etapas de desenvolvimento do instrumento WHOQOL-SRPB: revisão da literatura, grupos focais, geração de questões nacionais, geração de itens consensuais, desenvolvimento do instrumento piloto, aplicação do piloto, análise do desempenho das questões, desenvolvimento do instrumento definitivo e teste de campo. A etapa dos grupos focais foi aplicada em Porto Alegre, RS, com 15 grupos (n=142), incluindo profissionais da saúde, pacientes agudos, crônicos e terminais, religiosos (católicos, evangélicos, afro-brasileiros e espíritas) e ateus. Foram discutidas as facetas sugeridas pelo grupo de experts, além das dimensões espontaneamente trazidas pelos participantes dos grupos. RESULTADOS E CONCLUSÕES: A técnica de grupo focal mostrou-se adequada para captar as diferentes opiniões dos participantes, permitindo que fossem testadas as hipóteses dos pesquisadores, redirecionando e/ou ampliando conceitos previamente estabelecidos. Além disso, evidenciou a importância da dimensão espiritual na vida dos pacientes. Universidade de São Paulo.
