7/x Leah took the last straw the audience was holding on to:

8/x The last chapter focuses on the contexts of use of #HRQL measures (e.g., #FDA, agencies, #PatientCentered initiatives). Kevin Weinfurt (👇) and Rebecca Jackson discussed how even the often ignored response options reflect assumptions of how we want to represent what we are measuring!
