    OBJECTIVES: The relative performance of three widely used generic health status measures (EQ-5D, a modified HUI3 [mHUI3], and SF-12) was compared within a general population sample. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data were taken from a cohort of persons identified from the patient list of a large general practice in York, UK.

  • Death??? and the Valuation of Health-Related Quality of Life

    Susan Macran, Paul KindARTICLEMedical Care2001

    BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Despite evidence to the contrary, a common assumption in the area of health status measurement is that the state "dead" is the worst possible health state and by definition should be assigned a value of 0. However, the value of the state "dead" and the notion of states worse than "dead" have never been fully addressed as a research topic. This article demonstrates the extent of the variation in the value given to the st…

  • The role of personal therapy for therapists

    Open AccessSusan Macran, David A ShapiroARTICLEBritish Journal of Medical…1998

    This paper reviews the research literature on personal therapy and makes some recommendations for how future work in this area may be improved. Despite the general acceptance of the importance of personal therapy amongst therapists, there has been relatively little research to evaluate its effectiveness. The vast majority of studies have consisted of surveys of therapists' opinions and experiences of therapy or naturalistic comparisons across the…

    Open AccessSusan Macran, Heather Joshi et al.ARTICLEWork Employment and Society1996Citada por: 51Referencias: 10

    Longitudinal data from two cohorts of women born in 1946 and 1958 are used to describe the break in employment experienced by women after childbearing. This is reducing in length. The decline in the employment gap, observed for women born in 1958 has largely been confined to those women who delayed their childbearing until their late twenties and early thirties and women who were more highly educated. What seems to be occurring is a polarisation …

  • Women's socio-economic status and self assessed health

    Open AccessSusan Macran, Lynda Clarke et al.ARTICLESociology of Health & Illness1994Citada por: 22Referencias: 17

    This paper uses data from the British Health and Lifestyle Survey to explore the relationship between women's overall assessment of their health and their occupation, employment status, household composition and household income. Logistic regression was used to predict the odds of assessing health as either 'good' or 'less-than-good'. These findings suggest that after controlling for age and the presence of a long-standing illness or disability, …
