Excerpt

In June 2004, the National Cancer Institute and Drug Information Association co-sponsored a conference focused on developing patient-reported outcome (PRO) questionnaires, analyzing data collected from patients, and utilizing findings to enhance decision making for treatment and health policy, “Advances in Health Outcomes Measurement: Exploring the Current State and the Future of Item Response Theory (IRT), Item Banks, and Computer-Adaptive Testing.” Invited speakers were internationally recognized experts in psychometrics and health-outcomes measurement. Their rich experiences are reflected in the articles in this supplement that focus on describing the methods of modern measurement theory and its applications, as well as challenges for improving PRO measures such as pain, fatigue, physical function, and emotional distress. …
