Objective The objective of this study was to translate and adapt the National Institute of Mental Health Life Chart Method – Self/Prospective (NIMH-LCM-S/P™) instrument for self-monitoring of mood into Brazilian Portuguese and provide evidence of content validity. Additionally, a user guide was prepared for the instrument and evaluated by mental health professionals. Methods The study was divided into two stages – Stage 1: Translation and cross-cultural adaptation and Stage 2: Determination of content validity index (CVI) scores. The translation and cross-cultural adaptation process involved 37 participants between translators, experts, target population, and evaluators. Results The CVI was evaluated by 15 mental health professionals. 11 (78.57%) of the items evaluated attained the maximum CVI score of 1.00, which constitutes the highest level of content validity, and no changes were suggested by participants. Only one of the items evaluated had a CVI score lower than 0.80. Conclusion The final translated and adapted version of the NIMH-LCM-S/P™ and its user guide were evaluated by the target population and the mental health professionals. Both groups displayed satisfactory comprehension levels, suggesting there is potential for using this instrument in clinical practice to assess therapeutic interventions in Brazilian settings.

O livro Brasil: Nunca Mais relata as práticas de tortura inferidas a presos políticos durante o período de ditadura militar no Brasil. O projeto coordenado pelos religiosos Dom Paulo Evaristo Arns e Jaime Wright, feito clandestinamente e lançado em julho de 1985, chocou ao denunciar os horrores dos anos de chumbo e, em paralelo, lançar uma lista com 350 nomes de torturadores. O presente artigo propõe analisar como a imprensa brasileira agendou a publicação, por meio da análise de conteúdo (AC) dos jornais Folha de S. Paulo e Jornal do Brasil. Com a pesquisa, podemos perceber quais atributos do livro – que chocou muitos e deixou tantos outros descontentes – foram destacados na agenda midiática, além da presença de colunas de opinião que demonstram um interesse do público, por meio dos líderes de opinião, pela obra.Palavras-chave: Jornalismo impresso. Ditadura civil-militar brasileira.
