Outline of Final Research Achievements

Using the data set of value sets, I started developing the following preference-based measures; ASCOT-Carer, AP-7D, EORTC QLU C-10D, FACT-8D. Regarding ASCOT-Carer and EORTC QLU C-10D, I completed development and published the article. Now responses to both responses can be converted to utilities. AP-7D and FACT-8D needs more development process to establish the values sets.
