This special issue features outcomes research and applications of universal health-related quality of life measures produced under the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System® (PROMIS®) initiative.
PROMIS began in 2004 as a National Institutes of Health (NIH) Roadmap initiative, and subsequently was converted to one of the most visible trans-NIH Common Fund efforts, with continued support through 2014. Today, PROMIS measures comprise more than 2,000 individual self-report adult and pediatric health items across physical, mental, and social domains.
This special issue is divided into four sections:
- Extending PROMIS Validity
- PROMIS in Intervention Studies
- Clinical Applications of PROMIS
- Facing Challenges and New Directions
