Key facts

Function score [Skindex-29]
Function score
Skindex Functioning Scores combine the responses to questions concerning affects on relationships, staying home, work, and sleep, which are then converted to a linear scale of 0 to 100. Each scale score for a given domain (Symptoms, Emotions, or Functioning) represents the average of the patient's responses to questions for that domain. Higher scores are associated with lower quality of life. [PMID22284137]
