We define the first as “internal responsiveness,” which characterizes the ability of a measure to change over a prespecified time frame, and the second as “external responsivene ss,” which reflects the extent to which change in a measure relates to corresponding change in a reference measure of clinical or health status.

Why is responsiveness important?
We identified three distinct but overlapping conceptualisations of responsiveness in the literature, corresponding to domains of literature relating to service quality; inequalities and the needs of diverse groups (in health or other services); and consumerism and patient involvement.

Measurements of clinical phenomena yield four main types of data: nominal, ordinal, interval, and continuous.6 Nominal datadoes not have meaning beyond representing unordered categories despite numbers often being used to represent the categories, such as, languages (German, French, English, Spanish), blood types (A, B, O, AB), sex (female, male), ...
Irrespective of whether we are interpreting a diagnostic test or a clinical finding, determining eligibility for a study, defining and/or quantifying an intervention or an exposure, or quantifying an outcome, we are using a quantitative measurement system in some form to describe a behavior or characteristic. In each of these situations we must sep...
Strategies to reduce measurement bias include: 1. Standardize measurement methods: • Educate subjects to follow instructions before assessment (e.g., to drink the amount of oral contrast prescribed prior to a CT scan of the abdomen)—to minimize subject variability • Mandate technique (e.g., standardize imaging protocols in an operations’ manual)—to...
There are three main clinimetric properties of measurements: reliability, validity, and responsiveness.
MeSH terms. A review of the literature suggests there are two major aspects of responsiveness. We define the first as "internal responsiveness," which characterizes the ability of a measure to change over a prespecified time frame, and the second as "external responsiveness, " which reflects the extent to which ….

Statistical inference uses probability to determine how confident we can be that our conclusions are correct. Effective interpretation of data, or inference, is based on good procedures for producing data and thoughtful examination of the data.
Sep 9, 2020 · Response Variable: Sometimes referred to as a dependent variable or an outcome variable, the value of this variable responds to changes in the explanatory variable. In an experimental study, we’re typically interested in how the values of a response variable change as a result of the values of an explanatory variable being changed.
