Patient-reported outcome (PRO) assessments are increasingly being used to measure/assess patients’ experiences (e.g., treatment benefit, tolerability, preferences, perspectives of benefit and risks of treatment) in research. Conceptual, methodological, and practical methods for determining what concepts to measure and how to measure them will be presented. Theoretical frameworks, reliability, validity, responsiveness, methods of administration, respondent and administrative burdens, and issues of analysis and interpretation of PRO data will be discussed, using real-world examples. Key considerations related to the selection, modification, and/or development of PRO instruments, will also be discussed. This course is intended for those with little experience with these methodologies.
