    The Defense Style Questionnaire (DSQ) is an instrument designed to measure conscious derivatives of ego defense mechanisms. It was developed and validated by Michael Bond in 1983 in Canada. This study presents a translation and adaptation of the DSQ into Portuguese, as well as an evaluation of the statistical reliability of the Portuguese version compared to its original form. METHODS: The translation was carried out by a group of psychiatrists, psychologists and English teachers, using the back-translation technique. The reliability study was administered to a sample of 51 bilingual respondents (English/Portuguese), who performed the tests in both versions (original and translated). Statistical analysis of internal consistency and item by item and subject by subject correlations, as well as mean score between the two versions (original and translated) have demonstrated that both forms are equivalent; therefore, the translation into Portuguese is accurate. Agreement rate and unanswered items were also evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: All results were quite satisfactory and statistically significant, which leads to the conclusion that the translated instrument is adequate for application in Brazil.
