          ABSTRACT

          OBJECTIVE

          To investigate the validity and test-retest reliability of the Brazilian version of the Dutch questionnaire “ Verwachtingen over werken”.

          METHODS

          We analyzed data from a longitudinal study conducted in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, from 2014 to 2016. Participants were 411 workers on sick leave for more than 15 days due to mental disorders. A subsample of 126 participants responded the questionnaire a second time, seven to 21 days later. Factorial and concurrent validities and the test-retest reliability were analyzed.

          RESULTS

          Most participants were female (71.5%), the average age was 36.7 years; 83.1% had attended 12 or more years of formal schooling; the average length of sick leave was 84 days. The average self-efficacy score tended to be below the scale midpoint. The construct had a two-dimensional structure and the concurrent validity confirmed the original construct. For all items, the test-retest reliability adjusted for prevalence ranged from good (0.70) to almost perfect (0.83).

          CONCLUSIONS

          While the two-dimensional structure diverges from the original, other parameters were adequate. Application of the Return-to-work self-efficacy questionnaire to Brazilian workers might contribute to the planning of return-to-work process. Additional studies are needed to complement the analysis of the use of this instrument in Brazil.

          RESUMO

          OBJETIVO

          Analisar a validade e a confiabilidade teste-reteste da versão brasileira do questionário holandês “Expectativas sobre o trabalho”.

          MÉTODOS

          Foram utilizados os dados de um estudo longitudinal conduzido na cidade de São Paulo, SP, entre 2014 e 2016. Participaram 411 trabalhadores afastados do trabalho por mais de 15 dias devido a transtornos mentais. Uma subamostra de 126 participantes respondeu ao questionário pela segunda vez, com intervalo de sete a 21 dias. Foram analisadas a validade fatorial e concorrente, e a confiabilidade teste-reteste.

          RESULTADOS

          A maioria dos participantes era do sexo feminino (71,5%), com média de idade de 36,7 anos; 83,1% tinham escolaridade igual ou superior a 12 anos de estudo e o tempo médio de afastamento foi de 84 dias. O valor de autoeficácia médio inclinava-se para valores abaixo do ponto médio da escala. A estrutura fatorial apresentou-se como bidimensional e a validade concorrente confirmou o constructo original. A confiabilidade teste-reteste de cada item, ajustada pela prevalência, variou de boa (0,70) a quase perfeita (0,83).

          CONCLUSÕES

          Embora a estrutura bidimensional fosse diferente da original, outros parâmetros mostraram-se adequados. O uso do questionário “Expectativa sobre o trabalho” entre trabalhadores do Brasil pode auxiliar no planejamento de processos de retorno ao trabalho. Novos estudos devem ser desenvolvidos para complementar a análise do uso da ferramenta no Brasil.

            Mental Disorders in Megacities: Findings from the São Paulo Megacity Mental Health Survey, Brazil

            Background World population growth is projected to be concentrated in megacities, with increases in social inequality and urbanization-associated stress. São Paulo Metropolitan Area (SPMA) provides a forewarning of the burden of mental disorders in urban settings in developing world. The aim of this study is to estimate prevalence, severity, and treatment of recently active DSM-IV mental disorders. We examined socio-demographic correlates, aspects of urban living such as internal migration, exposure to violence, and neighborhood-level social deprivation with 12-month mental disorders. Methods and Results A representative cross-sectional household sample of 5,037 adults was interviewed face-to-face using the WHO Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI), to generate diagnoses of DSM-IV mental disorders within 12 months of interview, disorder severity, and treatment. Administrative data on neighborhood social deprivation were gathered. Multiple logistic regression was used to evaluate individual and contextual correlates of disorders, severity, and treatment. Around thirty percent of respondents reported a 12-month disorder, with an even distribution across severity levels. Anxiety disorders were the most common disorders (affecting 19.9%), followed by mood (11%), impulse-control (4.3%), and substance use (3.6%) disorders. Exposure to crime was associated with all four types of disorder. Migrants had low prevalence of all four types compared to stable residents. High urbanicity was associated with impulse-control disorders and high social deprivation with substance use disorders. Vulnerable subgroups were observed: women and migrant men living in most deprived areas. Only one-third of serious cases had received treatment in the previous year. Discussion Adults living in São Paulo megacity had prevalence of mental disorders at greater levels than similar surveys conducted in other areas of the world. Integration of mental health promotion and care into the rapidly expanding Brazilian primary health system should be strengthened. This strategy might become a model for poorly resourced and highly populated developing countries.

              Return to work perceptions and actual return to work in workers with common mental disorders.

              Return to work (RTW) perceptions have been found to predict actual RTW of workers with common mental disorders. This study aims to (1) assess the relative value of RTW self-efficacy (RTW-SE) and RTW expectation in predicting actual RTW and (2) explore the role of mental health symptoms, work characteristics and their interaction as determinants of these RTW perceptions at baseline and over time.
