Test-retest reliability assessment performed using intraclass correlation coefficients generated values of 0.72 for GPH (95% CI, [0.65,0.78])and 0.70 (95% CI [0.63,0.76]) for GMH.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The Indonesian version of PROMIS Global Health Scale v1.2 showed sufficient content validity, structural validity, internal consistency, and reliability, which supported the application of this tool for HRQoL assessment in clinical and research settings.</p>","PeriodicalId":12980,"journal":{"name":"Health and Quality of Life Outcomes","volume":"23 1","pages":"9"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11783922/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143074737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
