The Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire (SATAQ) is one of the most investigated instruments for the evaluation of sociocultural pressure and internalization of the beauty standard, and it is considered to be one of the most robust instruments for this purpose. The most recent version of this questionnaire is the SATAQ-4R, originally designed for adults and teenagers, which has been used in different countries, contexts, and populations. The cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the SATAQ-4R for Brazilian children are appropriate and necessary. The general objective of this study was to translate, adapt, and verify the psychometric qualities of the SATAQ-4R for Brazilian girls and boys aged between 7 and 11 years old. Study 1 describes the cross-cultural adaptation, from the translation stage to the pretest in children of both sexes (n = 36, M = 8.76, SD = 1.59 years). SATAQ-4R has been demonstrated to be easily understood by Brazilian children. Studies 2 and 3 analyze the psychometric qualities of such an instrument in 566 girls (M = 9.18, SD = 1.23 years) and in 592 boys (M = 9.18, SD = 1.23), respectively. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses have been performed with independent samples. Both instruments presented factor structures composed of five factors, good reliability, and convergent validity. We concluded that SATAQ-4R-Female and SATAQ-4R-Male are useful tools for evaluating the internalization of beauty standards and of sociocultural pressure on Brazilian children.

SATAQ-4R 针对巴西儿童的翻译、改编和心理测量特性。

对外表的社会文化态度问卷（SATAQ）是评估社会文化压力和美容标准内化的研究最多的工具之一，并且被认为是为此目的最有力的工具之一。该调查问卷的最新版本是SATAQ-4R，最初是为成人和青少年设计的，已在不同国家、环境和人群中使用。SATAQ-4R 对巴西儿童的跨文化适应和验证是适当且必要的。本研究的总体目标是针对 7 至 11 岁的巴西女孩和男孩翻译、调整和验证 SATAQ-4R 的心理测量质量。研究 1 描述了男女儿童（n = 36，M = 8.76，SD = 1.59 岁）从翻译阶段到预测试的跨文化适应。SATAQ-4R 已被证明很容易被巴西儿童理解。研究 2 和 3 分别分析了 566 名女孩（M = 9.18，SD = 1.23 岁）和 592 名男孩（M = 9.18，SD = 1.23）的心理测量质量。已对独立样本进行了探索性和验证性因素分析。两种工具均呈现由五个因素组成的因素结构，具有良好的信度和收敛效度。我们的结论是，SATAQ-4R-Female 和 SATAQ-4R-Male 是评估巴西儿童美容标准内化和社会文化压力的有用工具。
