Measurement instruments in clinical ethics

Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • ""The evolution of ethical issues in clinical and research work in health has acclerated dramatically due to the struggle toward patient automony in end-of-life decisions and patients' access to choices in health care and in research. How do we clarify the assumptions and consequences of these decisions in the development of measurement instruments that gather data of their psychometic characteristics? This book presents a number of these instruments ... each chapter examines a specific topic category (for example, patient preference, aggressiveness of care, and others) and then explains each of the various instruments that have been developed to measure that topic. Next, the description, psychometric properties, summary and critique, references, and a copy of the instrument are provided so as to facilitate the reader's search for a usable instrument."--Back cover."
