Description

De Castro Araújo Neto and six co-authors adapted a professionalism scale for pharmacists into Brazilian Portuguese and tested how well it works, in a study published in twenty twenty-three. The scale, based on Hall's framework, measures the attitudes and habits that mark a true professional.

The work ran in three stages. First the team translated the scale and adjusted it for Brazilian culture. Then experts from different regions checked that each item still made sense. Finally, six hundred Brazilian pharmacists completed the adapted scale. Statistical analysis grouped the thirty-nine items into six themes, matching the design of the original. Agreement checks scored above the accepted bar, and the themes held together reliably. The authors say the Brazilian version is ready for use in studies of pharmacist training and professional growth.
