Explaining Heterogeneity in Risk Preferences Using a Finite Mixture Model
This paper studies the effect of the space (distance) between lotteries' outcomes on risk-taking behavior and the shape of estimated utility and probability weighting functions. Previously investigated experimental data shows a significant space effect in the gain domain. As compared to low spaced lotteries, high spaced lotteries are associated with higher risk aversion for high probabilities o...
متن کاملTowards a better QALY model.
This paper presents a test of the predictive validity of various classes of QALY models (i.e. linear, power and exponential models). We first estimated TTO utilities for 43 EQ-5D chronic health states and next these states were embedded in nonchronic health profiles. The chronic TTO utilities were then used to predict the responses to TTO questions with nonchronic health profiles. We find that ...
متن کاملAdding Extrinsic Goals to the QALY Model
Methods for evaluating health quality are central to medical decision analyses. The most important such method is the quality-adjusted life year (or QALY), in which a patient's length of life is given weight proportional to quality of health. QALYs have become ubiquitous in medical cost-effectiveness as a measure of preference for health outcomes. However, numerous studies have demonstrated tha...
متن کاملOutcomes of High-Risk Pregnancies in Northern Iran: Multivariate Logistic Regression Model
Abstract Background and purpose: High-risk pregnancy is referred to a situation in which mother, fetus or neonate are in higher risk of morbidity or mortality. Because of adverse outcomes of high-risk pregnancies, this study aims to determine these outcomes in the North of Iran. Materials and Methods: We recruited 803 urban and rural pregnant women in this crosssectional ...
متن کاملThe QALY model and individual preferences for health states and health profiles over time: a systematic review of the literature.
The numbers of quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) gained are increasingly being used to represent the gains in individual utility from treatment. This requires that the value of a health improvement to an individual is a simple product of gains in quality of life and length of life. The article reports on a systematic review of the literature on 2 issues: whether the value of a state is affect...
