Self-Report Tests of Personality01:22

Self-Report Tests of Personality

Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.
Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model01:29

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model

The Self-Evaluation Maintenance (SEM) model offers a psychological framework to understand how individuals’ self-esteem is influenced by the achievements of others, particularly those with whom they share close personal bonds. The SEM model operates when personal rather than social identity guides individuals. Central to this model is the notion that individuals have an inherent desire to preserve a favorable self-image, which is continuously shaped by interpersonal comparisons and...
Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence categorization, a person will feel...

Area of Science:

  • Health Economics
  • Quality of Life Research
  • Psychometrics

Background:

  • Current economic evaluation methods inadequately capture the impact of interventions on unpaid carers.
  • Existing health measures overlook crucial aspects of care-related quality of life.
  • Carer-specific sum scores lack preference-based valuation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To derive preference-based index values for the Carer Experience Scale (CES).
  • To develop a measure reflecting the quality of life related to the caring experience.
  • To enhance economic evaluations by including carer perspectives.

Main Methods:

  • A best-worst scaling experiment was conducted with 162 unpaid carers of older adults in the UK.
  • Respondents evaluated 18 profiles from the CES, selecting the best and worst attribute levels.
  • Logistic regression analysis estimated utility weights, which were rescaled to a 0-100 index.

Main Results:

  • Lower levels of 'activities' and 'getting on' significantly decreased utility.
  • Greater value was placed on improvements from lower to middle attribute levels compared to middle to top levels.
  • Alternative modeling approaches showed minimal impact on the resulting index values.

Conclusions:

  • The developed index values offer a novel, preference-based method for incorporating carer effects into economic evaluations.
  • This approach prioritizes care-related quality of life over health-related quality of life for carers.
  • The Carer Experience Scale provides a valuable tool for assessing the impact of interventions on unpaid carers.
