Dartmouth Primary Care Cooperative Information Project (COOP) – Adolescent Version
Generic measure
Measure domains: Physical fitness, emotional feelings, school work, social support, family communication, health habits
Summary of development: The Dartmouth Primary Care Cooperative Information Project (COOP Project) was established in the 1980’s. It was a collaboration of public healthcare policy makers, physicians, and medical school faculty from Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, along with faculty at Dartmouth Medical School. The goal was to find ways to measure HRQoL in physicians’ offices (Nelson et al 1981a; Nelson et al 1981b). The measure was originally used in adult and geriatric populations. In 1994, Wasson created a version of the COOP measure for adolescents based on previous versions for adults. Here we only include testing of the adolescent version but there is other testing of the adult version in the literature.
