Question pretext
Health State Valuations
Descriptions:
The questions I am going to ask you now are about different states of health. I will present several different states, and I want you to try to imagine what it would be like to live in those states.
If you look at these cards you will see that each card describes one health state. Let me begin by reading each card out loud (READ EACH CARD AND HAND IT TO RESPONDENT). Now, for each state, I am going to ask you to describe what you imagine that state would be like in terms of different aspects of health.
Now please try to imagine the following health state: major depression, with profound sadness, loss of pleasure in activities, slowness and irritability, poor
sleep and appetite and suicidal thoughts.
