Patient-reported outcome measures(PROMs) are used to assess a patient's health status at a particular point in time. PROMs are standardized, validated survey tools that assess health outcomes reported by patients, in areas such as general health and quality of life, or around specific symptoms, functional ability and physical, mental and social health. They can be completed either during an illness or while treating a health condition. 2, record 1, English, - patient%2Dreported%20outcome%20measure

The Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire(JVQ) was developed in the USA [United States of America] by David Finkelhor and his colleagues... In this paper we compare the findings of this new instrument with those of the General Social Survey, a tried and tested questionnaire... Specifically, we compare these two victimization questionnaires with respect to lifetime victimization and annual victimization for youth between 15 to 17 years of age. The results indicate that, although there are differences between both questionnaires[, they] find similar rates of annual victimization, but differences regarding lifetime victimization. 1, record 2, English, - annual%20victimization

Victimization surveys have repeatedly shown that the risk of victimization decreases with age. In Canada, the General Social Survey, which measures victimization in the general population, does not include youth under 15 years of age. The information available regarding the victimization of children and youth comes from official sources such as Youth Protection Services and the police. We know that these official statistics are incomplete and just the tip of the iceberg and that the dark number regarding the victimization of children and youth is significant. 3, record 4, English, - victimization%20survey

De nombreuses différences ont été constatées entre les questions des deux enquêtes de victimisation[, l'Enquête sociale générale et le Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire.
