Cross-cultural adaptation, and factor structure of the decision styles scale for Brazil

The objective was to carry out the cross-cultural adaptation of the Decision Styles Scale (DSS) for Brazil. Translation and back-translation were carried out, evaluated by a committee of experts. DSS was answered by 1218 participants of both sexes (women = 816, 73.4%) aged between 18 and 64 (M = 26....
