Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Human Papillomavirus Impact Profile (HIP) Human Papillomavirus Impact Profile (HIP) is a validated, self-administered questionnaire, designed to measure the psychosocial impact of HPV-related health conditions in women. This is 29-item rated on a 0 (no impact) -10 point (worst impact) discretized visual analog scale grouped into seven hypothesized domains: Worries and concerns, Emotional impact, Sexual impact, Self-image, Partner issues and transmission, Interactions with doctors, and Control-life impact . Dimension scores and a total burden score, all ranging from 0 to 100, are calculated based on item scores. Higher scores indicate a greater psychosocial impact of HPV. The Japanese version of the HIP questionnaire was generated through a standard linguistic validation process, which included translation, back translation, comparison, review and consolidation and field pilot testing by MAPI.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Kessler Psychological Distress Scale 6 (K6) The Kessler 6 Psychological Distress Scale (K6) is a brief 6-item questionnaire designed to measure the level of distress and severity associated with psychological symptoms in population surveys. The K6 is one of the most commonly and extensively used self-report tools as a clinical outcome measure across the world. The Japanese version of the K6 has already been developed and demonstrated screening performances essentially equivalent to those of the original English versions. K6 psychological distress includes the following items: (1) so sad nothing can cheer up, (2) nervous, (3) restless or fidgety, (4) hopeless, (5) everything was an effort, and (6) worthless. K6 can be scored using the unweighted sum of responses; 1 all of the time, 2 most of the time, 3 some of the time, 4 a little of the time, 5 none of the time. Thus, the total scores range from 0 to 24; K6 score of 0 to 7 indicates low distress, 8 to 12 moderate distress, and 13 to 24 high risk of psychological distress. Previous study using K6 described that a positive outcome of cervical cancer screening was associated with psychological distress in Japan.
