Unlabelled: The Positions on Nursing Diagnosis tool (PND) was developed in English to assess nurses' attitudes toward nursing diagnosis.

Aims: To adapt and validate the PND to Portuguese Brazilian language; and to verify associations between PND and selected variables. The Brazilian version of PND, named Posições frente ao Diagnóstico de Enfermagem (PDE), was obtained by translation, back-translation, and comparison between the original version and the back-translated one. The PDE was applied to 400 nurses and nursing students. The PDE scores were positively correlated with a general statement favorable to nursing diagnosis; the factor analysis produced 3 factors (evaluative, potency, and activity). The nursing students showed more favorable attitudes toward nursing diagnosis.
