Resumo

Este estudo objetiva adaptar a Escala de Ansiedade ao Falar em Público (EAFP) para o contexto brasileiro, reunindo evidências de sua validade fatorial e consistência interna. Dois estudos foram realizados com amostra de universitários. O Estudo 1 participaram 211 pessoas (Midade = 25 anos; DPidade = 9,18; 58,8% homens), tendo os resultados sugerido uma estrutura unifatorial constituída pelos 14 itens que se mostraram discriminativos. No Estudo 2 participaram 208 pessoas (Midade = 25 anos; DPidade = 7,79; 79% mulheres), confirmando a estrutura unifatorial, que se demonstrou invariante quanto ao sexo, apresentando validade convergente com indicadores de saúde geral e confiança de falar em público. Concluiu-se que a versão brasileira da EAFP reuniu evidências psicométricas adequadas, apoiando seu uso em pesquisas que avaliem ansiedade de falar em público.
