Abstract

This study was part of the activities developed at the Master of Medicine of the Maternal and Child Health Program of the Federal University of Ceará, Brazil. Objective: To evaluate the bibliographic consistency of the Maternal Attachment Perception Inventory (MAPI) and the Survey of Wellbeing of Young Children (SWYC), indicating reliability and validity information about their measurements. Methods: This is a review study, conducted from February to December of 2017, in the bases of the CAPES journals, the Virtual Health Library (LILACS, MEDLINE and IBECS), Pubmed and Scielo. Results: It was found that these investigative instruments are very necessary in research involving public health, as they are useful for early identification of risks in child health, as well as identify and strengthen family ties of care for children from zero to three years. Conclusion: It was concluded that SWYC is considered a very useful instrument for surveillance of neuropsychomotor, socioemotional and behavioral development, and is also an important indicator of children’s life context. The MAPI proved to be consistent to assess the attachment of mothers of children from six to thirteen years of age, indicating high reliability, however, we indicate the need for further research with this instrument in Brazil, in order to enable its validation. Both instruments proved to be useful in primary care because they are easily accessible, viable, inexpensive and easy to apply, as well as being technically effective and widely used.
