Is there scoring information/norms available for the short forms, or should we adapt the existing info from 34 item form?
The Short Forms were designed as ‘in therapy’s measures to be used on a cycle patters (A-B-A-B etc.) to track changes in therapy through comparing the overall means (and possibly responses to individual items). They were therefore designed to complement rather than replace the full CORE Outcome Measure. Most of the research and benchmarking to date has been solely done with the 34 items. You could follow this up with the CORE System Trust.
