Abstract
The paper presents a four-dimensional classification system for health states, designed to categorize short- and long-term health outcomes in children. A method is described, based on multi-attribute utility theory and health status index models, to assign cardinal social preference values to the health states of the classification system. Relevant theory is presented. A field test of the method is reported.
