A pilot study to apply best worst scaling discrete choice experiment methods to obtain adolescent specific values for the Child Health Utility 9D

‘Nothing about us without us!’ Valuing Child Health Utility 9D health states in a young adolescent sample: A pilot study to assess the feasibility of best worst discrete choice, standard gamble and time trade off methods

Valuing Child Health Utility 9D Health States with Young Adults: Insights from a Time Trade Off Study.

OBJECTIVES In contrast to the proliferation of studies incorporating health state values from adults of all ages, relatively few studies have reported upon the application of the time trade off (TTO) approach to generate health state values from populations of younger adults. This study sought to employ a conventional TTO approach to obtain values for a selection of Child Health Utility 9D (CHU...

Estimating preferences for a dermatology consultation using Best-Worst Scaling: Comparison of various methods of analysis

BACKGROUND Additional insights into patient preferences can be gained by supplementing discrete choice experiments with best-worst choice tasks. However, there are no empirical studies illustrating the relative advantages of the various methods of analysis within a random utility framework. METHODS Multinomial and weighted least squares regression models were estimated for a discrete choice e...

Utility Estimation of Health Status of Cancer Patients by Mapping for Cost-Utility Analysis

Background: It is important to obtain accurate information about the preferences of people for measuring quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), because it is necessary for cost-utility analysis. In this regard, mapping is a method to access this information. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to map Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – General (FACT-G) onto Short Form Six Dimension (SF...
