Purpose: Individual lifestyles have emerged as valuable health constructs. This study aims to psychometrically test the Portuguese (European) version of the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II.
Methods: After an adequate linguistic and cultural adaptation of the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II scale, their psychometric properties were assessed (N = 889) by Cronbach's alpha and confirmatory factor analysis.
Findings: Results showed an adequate fit to a 52-item, six-factor structure. A global alpha of .925 was obtained.
Conclusions: The Portuguese version demonstrated good validity and reliability in a wide adult sample, and can thus be applied to the Portuguese population.
Implications For Nursing Practice: This instrument is useful as an evaluation tool for health-promoting lifestyles and as an instrument for testing the effectiveness of health-promoting programs.
