Background: After lower limb amputations, a decrease in gait capacity, even with prostheses, is common and persistent. Functional ability involves multiple constructs; therefore, several outcome measures, such as performance tests or self-report questionnaires, should be used to evaluate people with amputation who use prostheses.
Objective: To analyze the convergent construct validity of the Brazilian version of the Houghton scale in a sample of lower limb prosthesis users.
