Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of health literacy on questionnaire-based measurement.

Primary Outcome

A primary outcome of this study will be the degree of DIF in NIH PROMIS questionnaire Anxiety subscale observed across adequate versus low health literacy. The outcome will be measured by a McFadden pseudo-R-square (R2), which captures the degree to which health-literacy group determines probability of response type for each item. The pseudo R2 is an analogue to R2 used in linear regression. For DIF analysis, each scale is normalized to a theta metric (mean = 0, standard dev. = 1 by definition).
