Outcomes

 1. Level of exercise/Activity [Q27-Q31; higher score is more exercise/week]

 2. Eating and Drinking (composite measure = Total Score of positive food choices[Q32-Q34] – Total Score of Negative food choices [Q35 and Q40] – Total Number of Alcoholic drinks/week – if no drinks 0, if < 1 = 1. Higher is better food/drink

 3. Health Habits That Modify Risk of Chronic Disease: Total Score exercise/activity + Total score positive food choices – total score negative food choices – Total number of Alcoholic drinks/week. Higher score is better health habits

 4. Functional Impairment: [Total Score of Q41-Q44 impact of health + Total score of Q45-50 symptoms]; higher value is more impairment

 5. Independent Self Care Agency [Q61 – Q73]. Higher value is higher agency

 6. Overall confidence in Achieving Goals Selected: Compute the average confidence score across available scores: Q92 + Q95 + Q98/3 or the # scores available;

 7. Goal Setting Competency: Overall importance of goals selected + overall confidence in achieving goals selected (higher is better)
