Measurements of individual benefits of different health and medical
interventions are fundamental for prioritizing among different
alternative uses of resources in the healthcare sector. While
psychometric measures do not necessarily provide information
sufficient for assigning relative values to different health
states, preference-based approaches produce measures that allow
comparisons of such values. In this volume of the series of
Advances in Health Economics and Health Services Research, entitled
Preference Measurement in Health, the papers cover altruism within
families, differences in risk attitudes, and estimation of health
benefits of food safety. Specific topics include efficiency and
altruism, comparison of mother and daughter values of HPV
vaccination for daughters, differences in risk attitudes between
women and men, how context matters in valuing food safety programs,
and valuation of health risks associated with pesticide use.
