PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

In many of the following questions you will be asked to imagine that you have pain rated on a 0-10 scale where 0 is no pain and 10 is pain as bad as you can imagine. Most people would describe mild pain as being between 1-3, moderate pain (for example a headache) 4-6, severe pain (for example a toothache or an acute fracture) above 7.

The following exercise uses a technique known as time trade-off to ascertain the value in years of life that you place on being pain free. In the following four questions you will be asked to imagine that you have 20 years left to live and for those 20 years you will constantly be in a particular level of pain. You will be asked how many years of excellent health free of pain or ailments are equivalent to 20 years in pain.



 
 
 
If you had 20 years to live in constant pain as intense as you experienced during your training, how many years in excellent health without the pain is the equivalent?
   years without the pain
 
 
 
If you had 20 years to live in constant pain half as intense as you experienced during your training, how many years in excellent health without the pain is the equivalent?
   years without the pain
 
 
 
If you had 20 years to live in constant pain of level 4 on a 0-10 pain scale where 0 is no pain and 10 is pain as bad as you can imagine, how many years in excellent health without the pain is the equivalent?

PLEASE READ HYPOTHETICAL SCENARIO 1 BELOW

Lets imagine.
You are in a pain of level 4 on a 0-10 scale where 0 is no pain and 10 is pain as bad as you can imagine. The pain will last continuously for one year. The pain is caused by a condition which is not life threatening. There is no cure for the condition but there is a ‘magic pill’ that suppresses the pain immediately and has no side effects.
If you are an athlete, you may be interested to know that this pill is legal for athletes and will have no consequences on your training (you will not be able to train harder) and performance. It will only work on your pain.
It is available without a prescription but you need to pay for it yourself. You take it once a month and its effects last one month exactly.
