Abstract

This work aims at continuing the contribution of Brazilian nursing in the elaboration of ICNPâ, which is being constructed by the coordination of ICN. It has two main objectives which are: 1) the definition of the terms identified in the CIPESC project and classified in the axis focus of nursing practice of the Nursing Phenomena Classification of ICNPâ-Beta Version; 2) the validation of these definitions within a group of judges composed of professionals who were previously involved in the execution of the CIPESC project, or who were teachers or nurse assistants in the area of community health nursing. The process was carried out in two phases, considering that the definitions that had a 0.80 rate of Agreement (RA) within the group of judges were validated. Ninety-nine definitions of the terms were validated: 26 attained a RA equal to 1.00; 56 attained a RA between 0.90-0.99 and, 17 attained a RA between 0.80 an 0.89. The definition of one term was not validated.
