Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Quality of Life, Physical Health Composite

    Assessed with Quality of Life SF-12 V.2 (Ware, Kosinski,Turner-Bowker, \& Gandek, 2002). This instrument has 12 items measuring eight subscales of mental and physical health-general health, physical functioning, role limitations due to physical health problems, role limitations due to emotional problems, bodily pain, vitality (energy/fatigue), social functioning, and mental health (psychological distress)-during the past 4 weeks. These subscales are combined to form a physical health composite scale and a mental health composite scale. Each scale is standardized to have a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10 for the U.S. population with a possible range from 0 to 100; higher scores represent a better health state.
