4. Which Scales?  Reliable  Valid  Sensitive to change  Logistically feasible

5. Reliability (Precision)  Degree of agreement between or among observers  Inter-observer agreement  Degree of agreement between observations  Intra-observer agreement (t est-retest)

6. Validity (Accuracy)  Content validity  Does the scale includes all relevant dimensions of what is being measured?  Criterion validity  Concurrent validity - Does the scale produce the same result as a “gold standard?”  Predictive validity - Does scale predict future health status?  Construct validity  Discriminant validity - Do the results differ from measures of a different type of deficit?  Convergent validity - Is the scale responsive to change?

16. Quality Adjusted Life Years QALYS  Outcome of clinical trial  Assign QOL weights  Calculate QALY  Assumes QOL rating independent of time in that state  Implies 2 QALYs is twice as good as 1 QALY  1 person gaining 10 QALYs = 10 persons gaining 1 QALY  Estimate of costs for that state used for cost- effectiveness analysis
