Questions and instructions
VIGNETTES FOR HEALTH STATE DESCRIPTIONS
I will now read to you some descriptions of persons with varying levels of difficulties in different areas of health. I would like to know how you view each of these descriptions and rate how much of a problem or difficulty the person described has in that area of health in the same way that you described your health to me. While giving the rating, think of the person as someone who is of your age and background.
Vision, Sleep and Energy
[Daniel] takes about two hours every night to fall asleep. He wakes up once or twice a night feeling panicked and takes more than one hour to fall asleep
again. Three to four nights a week he wakes up in the middle of the night and cannot go back to sleep for the rest of the night. He is fatigued all day, every day
and misses work several times a week. He cannot take part in sports or social activities.
