The authors aimed to culturally adapt and validate the Empathy Circle (EC) intervention for dementia care in Brazil. Using a modified Delphi technique with expert panels, they assessed content validity and found that the EC achieved a high content validity index of 96%, indicating strong expert agreement and positive feedback from participants regarding emotional support and empathy. The study concludes that the EC is a culturally valid and effective psychosocial tool for enhancing empathy in dementia care settings.
