Response shift, recall bias and their effect on measuring change in health-related quality of life amongst older hospital patients

Abstract: BackgroundAssessments of change in subjective patient reported outcomes such as health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are a key component of many clinical and research evaluations. However, conventional longitudinal evaluation of change may not agree with patient perceived change if patients' understanding of the subjective construct under evaluation changes over time (response shift) or if patients' have inaccurate recollection (recall bias). This study examined whether older adults' perception of change is … Show more

“…PROs are also relatively inexpensive and easy to administer. A potential disadvantage is that changes in PRO scores may be confounded by postoperative cognitive decline [ 1 ], recall bias (i.e., inaccurate recollection of events), and response shift (i.e., change in patients' standards and values in relation to their health status over time) [ 19 ]. Multidimensional questionnaires of generic health status (e.g., Short-Form 36 [ 20 ]) and recovery-related health status (e.g., Quality of Recovery Score [ 21 ] and Postoperative Quality of Life [ 22 ]) had their validity supported in the context of late recovery.…”

“…There is an extensive literature on the issue of recall bias in epidemiological studies that use odds ratios to quantify associations (see, e.g. Hassan, 2006;McPhail and Haines, 2010;Parr et al, 2009;Vrijheid et al, 2009). Nonetheless, as far as we know, there have been no attempts to address the problem from the perspective of right-censoring (apart from simply discarding the right-censored observations).…”

“…Limitations can often be associated with subjectivity, in which either the researcher or the research participant may influence the study results for various reasons [14]. For example, the solicitation of study participants presents a level of partiality due to the possibility of selection bias, where the sampling procedure favors selection of some individuals over others [15]. Additionally, an overarching limitation of traditional research methods is patient recall bias.…”
