Abstract Background Interpretations of profile and preference based measure scores can differ. Profile measures often use a norm-based scoring algorithm where each scale is scored to have a standardized mean and standard deviation relative to the general population scores norms i.e. norm-based . Preference-based index measures generate an overall scores on the conventional scale in which 0.00 is assigned to dead and l.00 is assigned to perfect health. Our objective was to investigate the interpretation of norm-based scoring of generic health status measures in a .
