“…In terms of mental health functioning, the values are similar to those noted in other studies of populations experiencing homelessness and populations that formerly experienced chronic homelessness receiving supportive housing (Chum et al, 2016;Tsai et al, 2013). Physical health functioning scores were lower than reported in other studies of populations experiencing homelessness but are in range for older populations experiencing multiple chronic conditions (Cheak-Zamora, Wyrwich, and McBride, 2009). At one year, self-reported mental health functioning improved, but still remained well below general population values.…”

HFH goals are to improve patients' health, reduce costs to the public health system, and demonstrate DHS's commitment to addressing homelessness within Los Angeles County. In August 2014, through the generous support of the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, the RAND Corporation was selected to serve as the evaluator for the HFH permanent supportive housing (PSH) program. RAND conducted a formative evaluation to provide early feedback on program implementation and performed an outcome evaluation examining the effects of the PSH program on county service utilization and service costs. RAND also analyzed data from a survey on health functioning both at housing entry and a year later among a small convenience sample of HFH participants.This report includes an assessment of the program structure and program goals and identifies the effects of PSH on service utilization and cost expenditures from several county departments. In this report, we discuss recommendations regarding future programming and research. This report will be of interest to state and county governments serving populations that experience homelessness; health care organizations; clinical practitioners; homeless services advocacy organizations; health care researchers; social workers; and others responsible for providing individuals experiencing homelessness with supportive housing and related care. The research was conducted by RAND Health, a division of the RAND Corporation. A profile of RAND Health, abstracts of its publications, and ordering information can be...

“…Alpha reliabilities were also adequate and similar to previous studies (Cheak-Zamora, Wyrwich, & McBride, 2009;De Smedt et al, 2013;Montazeri et al, 2011). Although the factor loadings and alpha reliability were adequate, a confirmatory factor analysis evaluation of the SF-12v2 provided non-acceptable fit indices.…”

The 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey, in its initial (SF-12) and revised form (SF-12v2) is a widely used measure to evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The present study evaluates the factor structure and reliability of the Brazilian version of the SF-12v2. Participants were 627 subjects (74.1% women), aged from 18 to 88 years (M = 38.6; SD = 13.16), from 17 Brazilian states. Confirmatory factor analyses suggested two pairs of error terms to be highly correlated (3a-3b; and 4a-4b). A qualitative inspection showed an overlap of content among these items. The respecified model presented adequate fit indices. Convergent validity was also tested with measures of health-related self-care, subjective happiness, life satisfaction, depression and self-efficacy. Expected correlations were found between the SF-12v2 and these measures. Results showed initial evidence in favor of using the SF-12v2 as a measure of physical and mental health in the Brazilian context.

“…It is widely used in clinical trials and routine outcome assessment because of its brevity and psychometric performance. 28,29 The SF-12v2 produces several HRQoL components, including the PCS-12 and MCS-12, and 8 additional subscales (physical function, role physical limitation, bodily pain, general health, vitality, role emotional function, social functioning, and mental health). Scoring algorithms of the PCS-12, MCS-12, and 8 subscales were developed using factor weights obtained from principle component analysis with orthogonal practice experience from the US healthy population (mean age 50±10 years).…”

Objective. To assess the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of student pharmacists and explore factors related to HRQoL outcomes of student pharmacists in a doctor of pharmacy (PharmD) program at a public university. Methods. A survey instrument was administered to all student pharmacists in a PharmD program at a public university to evaluate differences and factors related to the HRQoL outcomes of first-year (P1), second-year (P2), third-year (P3), and fourth-year (P4) student pharmacists in the college. The survey instrument included attitudes and academic-related self-perception, a 12-item short form health survey, and personal information components.Results. There were 304 students (68.6%) who completed the survey instrument. The average health state classification measure and mental health component scale (MCS-12) scores were significantly higher for P4 students when compared with the P1through P3 students. There was no difference observed in the physical component scale (PCS-12) scores among each of the 4 class years. Significant negative impact on HRQoL outcomes was observed in students with higher levels of confusion about how they should study (scale lack of regulation) and concern about not being negatively perceived by others (self-defeating ego orientation), while school satisfaction increased HRQoL outcomes (SF-6D, p<0.001; MCS-12, p=0.013). A greater desire to be judged capable (self-enhancing ego-orientation) and career satisfaction were positively associated with the PCS-12 scores (p<0.05). Conclusion. Factors associated with the HRQoL of student pharmacists were confusion regarding how to study, ego orientation, satisfaction with the chosen college of pharmacy, and career satisfaction. First-year through third-year student pharmacists had lower HRQoL as compared with P4 students and the US general population. Support programs may be helpful for students to maintain or improve their mental and overall health.

Reliability and validity of the SF-12v2 in the medical expenditure panel survey

Abstract: Both component scores showed adequate reliability and validity with the 2003-2004 MEPS and should be suitable for use in a variety of proposes within this database.
