| Abstract |
To assess the applicability of the newly developed ICECAP-O capability index in the measurement and valuation of quality of life in a large community based sample of the Australian general population. With origins in Sen's capability theory, the ICECAP-O may more fully encapsulate the multi-dimensional outcomes of public health policies and interventions than traditional health economic constructs. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 20 February 2014.
All research outputs
#14,599,900
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Public Health
#1,073
of 1,900 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#105,941
of 187,436 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Public Health
#16
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,900 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.8. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 187,436 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
