On the Measurement of Niche Breadth and Overlap.

Ecology

Colwell RK, Futuyma DJ.
PMID: 28973805
Ecology. 1971 Jul;52(4):567-576. doi: 10.2307/1934144.

Measures of niche breadth and overlap that depend on the distribution of individual among resource states (ecological categories) should be independent of the relative abundance of the species and of the number of resource states considered. Such measures should...

Pragmatic measurement of health satisfaction in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus using the Current Health Satisfaction Questionnaire.

Patient related outcome measures

Traina SB, Colwell HH, Crosby RD, Mathias SD.
PMID: 25870519
Patient Relat Outcome Meas. 2015 Mar 26;6:103-15. doi: 10.2147/PROM.S79368. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: The concept of diabetes-related health satisfaction encompasses issues specifically related to living with diabetes (eg, blood glucose, blood pressure levels, body weight). Health satisfaction is more specific than overall health-related quality of life because it considers disease-related factors,...
