Figure 1. Distribution of values of μ̂ and yp that violate monotonicity.

Figure 1

μ̂ = eRUM estimator for a given health state

yp = years lived in perfect heath from a single survey response for the given health state (multiplied by −1 for states deemed worse than dead).

Dark grey area = joint distribution of yp and μ̂ associated with monotonicity violations.
