Table 1.
Property | Criteria |
---|---|
Feasibility | Percentage of missing data (should be <10%) Percentage of computable data (should be >95%) |
Acceptability | Mean, median, and standard deviation similar across items (15% maximum divergence) Asymmetry and kurtosis should oscillate between −1 and 1 Floor and ceiling effect (percentage of scores in the lower and upper extremes; should be <15%) |
Reliability | Internal consistency: Cronbach´s alpha (≥0.7) Stability of the measure: ICC (EQ index and EQ VAS) |
Validity | Convergence: correlation between EQ index and VAS, and correlation between dimensions of EQ and assessment scales Divergence: correlation between EQ index and EQ VAS and assessment scales Internal: R2 of two linear regressions between EQ index and assessment scales and EQ VAS and assessment scales |
ICC: intraclass correlation coefficient; EQ index: EuroQol 5 Dimensions 3 Levels Index; EQ VAS: EuroQol Visual Analog Scale.
