The kappa statistics showed a general agreement of 0.4. For the Bayesian CFAs with seven-factor correlation solution, we had a poor fit for case 1 with a 95% confidence interval ranging from -52.893 to 273.797 and a PPP of 0.107. Regarding case 2, the model did not converge even after 50,000 iterations, which indicated that the specified model (i.e. seven-factor correlation solution) for case 2 was inadmissible. Thus, the IPQ-R HP questionnaire in Brazilian Portuguese has not been validated.
