Summary of QS

A written or electronic survey instrument comprised of a series of questions, designed to measure a specific item or set of items. Questionnaires are research instruments that usually have a documented method of administration, a standard format for data collection, and documented methods for scoring, analysis, and interpretation of results. A questionnaire is often analyzed by applying a numeric scoring system to question responses, where each question response is assigned a specific numeric ―score‖ that can be totaled to give an overall score (and possibly sectional sub-scores). Questionnaire data may include, but are not limited to subject reported outcomes and validated or non-validated questionnaires. The QS domain is not intended for use in submitting a set of questions grouped on the CRF for convenience of data capture. Some diaries are vehicles for collecting data for a validated questionnaire while others may simply facilitate capture of routine study data. When objective numeric data with result Qualifiers are collected in a questionnaire or diary format, the sponsor should consider whether this data actually belongs in a separate (new or existing) domain. For example, if the subject records the number of caffeinated beverages consumed each day in a diary, this information might be more appropriate for the Substance Use domain. The names of the questionnaires should be described under the variable QSCAT in the questionnaire domain. These could be either abbreviations or longer names, at the sponsor‘s discretion until controlled terminology is developed. For example, Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale (ADAS), SF-36 Health Survey (SF36), Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS).
