Abstract
Mutual concurrent validity of 2 generic measures of health-related quality of life (HRQL), the Child Health Questionnaire (CHQ) and the Health Utilities Index Mark 2 (HUI2) and HUI3, was assessed. Data were from 3 centers participating in a Canadian multi-center retrospective cohort study currently in progress to assess psycho-social and physical late effects in children surviving ≥5 years after cancer diagnosis between 1981 and 1990. Exploratory results are from 244 parent reports on HRQL in children Int. J. Cancer Suppl. 12:95–105, 1999. ©1999 Wiley-Liss, Inc.Keywords
