Erectile dysfunction (ED) is an important public health issue for which accurate clinical evaluating tools are necessary. The abridged International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) was developed for that purpose. The aim of the present research is to develop a Portuguese version of the IIEF-5 and to study preliminary structural metric properties. The present study used a sample of 113 healthy men. The results show that the metric properties are accurate.
