Abstract
This paper tests whether logically equivalent risk formats can lead to different health state utilities elicited by means of the traditional standard gamble (SG) method and a modified version of the method that we call “double lottery.”

Summary
This paper presents a test of the predictive validity of various classes of QALY models (i.e. linear, power and exponential models). We first estimated TTO utilities for 43 EQ-5D chronic health states and next these states were embedded in nonchronic health profiles.

El presente trabajo pretende obtener una estimación del valor monetario del año de vida ajustado por la calidad (AVAC). Para realizar dicha estimación de un modo directo, a través de la disposición a pagar, se puede partir tanto de ganancias pequeñas de salud como de grandes ganancias.

Summary
We report the results from two surveys designed to explore whether an application of Harsanyi’s principle of choice form behind a veil of ignorance (VEI) can be used in order to measure the health of populations. This approach was tentatively recommended by Murray et al.(Bull. World Health Organ 2000; 78: 981–994; Summary Measures of population health: Concepts, Ethics, Measurement and Applications, WHO, 2002.) as an appropriate way of constructing summary measures of population health (SMPH) for comparative purposes.

Abstract:
This paper tests the internal consistency of time trade-off utilities. We find significant violationsof consistency in the direction predicted by loss aversion. The violations disappear for higher gaugedurations. We show that loss aversion can also explain that for short gauge durations time trade-offutilities exceed standard gamble utilities.

Uno de los ámbitos de la regulación pública en el mercado farmacéutico atañe al procedimiento para la entrada de nuevos medicamentos al mercado. Es precisamente en este aspecto donde se han registrado mayores avances en términos de armonización e integración en el seno de la Unión Europea, sobre todo desde la creación y puesta en funcionamiento de la Agencia Europea para la Evaluación de Medicamentos (EMEA).

Abstract
Expected utility theory (EUT) has been challenged as a descriptive theory in many contexts. The medical decision analysis context is not an exception. Several researchers have suggested that rank dependent utility theory (RDUT) may accurately describe how people evaluate alternative medical treatments.

Summary
The general issues of equity and efficiency are central to the analysis of resource allocation problems in health care. We examine them using axiomatic bargaining theory. We study different solutions that have been proposed and relate them to previous literature on health care allocation.

Abstract
This article is intended to systematicaly show all the conditions that the Quality Adjusted Life Year (QALY) must satisfy so that it can be interpreted as a von Newman-Morgenstern utility. Such conditions cover two cases. When health states are chronic, we shall be referring to the conditions inferred by Pliskin, Shepard and Weinstein (1980).
