摘要：

Objective The WHOQOL group have developed an instrument to evaluate Quality of Life, the WHOQOL-100, available in 20 different languages (WHOQOL Group, 1998). The field trial of the portuguese version of the instrument is presented. Methods Two hundred and fifty patients from four main medical areas (Psychiatry, Clinical, Surgery and Ginecology) of the Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre and 50 controls were evaluated with the Portuguese version of the WHO Quality of Life Instrument (WHOQOL-100), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Beck Hope lessness Scale (BHS) in Porto Alegre, south Brazil. Results and Conclusion The instrument showed a good psychometric performance with good internal consistency, discriminant validity criterion validity, concurrent validity and reliability. The authors conclude that the intrument is ready for use in Brazil, it being important to evaluate its performance in other regions and with different samples.
