Validação da clareza do questionário Repense: temáticas em saúde no ensino da educação física escolar

Abstract

There are already consolidated studies and research instruments that are used to know the health status of Basic Education students. However, there are gaps in these same resources to identify how health issues are present in Physical Education teachers' classes. The current study seeks to validate the clarity of a questionnaire to identify the frequency of health topics in Physical Education classes. The research is quantitative, exploratory and instrument validation. Sixteen Physical Education teachers from a municipality in the State of Alagoas took part in the investigation. The questionnaire was built based on Health Education references and had more than 77 questions, divided into 5 dimensions, namely: Physical, Mental, Social, Spiritual and Aspects of Training and Professional Performance. The instrument was applied remotely using Google Forms. Data analysis was performed based on the statistics described and calculations based on the level of approval in the dimensions of 80%. The result achieved for each dimension was respectively: 83% (Physical Dimension), 80% (Mental Dimension), 83% (Social Dimension), 80% (Spiritual Dimension) and 90% (Aspects of Training and Professional Performance), after performing an average of all dimensions, they reached the percentage of 83% of validation. Even with the percentage reached, some questions that did not obtain a satisfactory result were reformulated, so that later it would allow a better understanding by the teachers. It was highlighted the greater clarity for issues related to the physical domain, demonstrating greater affinity of professors with this aspect of the theme. It is concluded that the instrument is valid in terms of clarity, demonstrating that the teachers understood the questions of the instrument.
