| Abstract |
The generic questionnaire WHO-5 Well-being Index (WHO-5), which measures the construct of mental well-being has been widely used in several populations across countries. The questionnaire has demonstrated sufficient psychometric properties; however, the test- retest reliability of the WHO-5 scale has yet to be determined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the test-retest reliability and measurement error of the Danish WHO-5 Well-being Index for outpatients with epilepsy. A further aim was to evaluate whether the method of administration (web, paper, or a mixture of the two modalities) influenced the results. Epilepsy outpatients aged ≥15 years from three outpatient clinics in Central Denmark Region were included from August 2016 to April 2017. The participants were randomly divided into four test-retest groups: web-web, paper-paper, web-paper, and paper-web. Test-retest reliability was assessed by intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and measurement error by calculating minimal detectable change (MDC) on the basis of the standard error of the measurement. A total of 554 patients completed the questionnaire at two time points. The median duration between test-retest was 22 days. The pooled test-retest reliability estimate was ICC 0.81 (95% CI 0.78; 0.84). The estimated MDC was 23.60 points (95% CI 22.27; 25.10). These estimates showed little variation across administration methods. WHO-5 showed acceptable test-retest reliability in a Danish epilepsy outpatient population across different method of administration; however, the relatively large measurement error should be taken into account when evaluating changes in WHO-5 scores over time. Further research should be done to explore these findings. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 11 September 2018.
All research outputs
#3,612,254
of 23,102,082 outputs
Outputs from Health and Quality of Life Outcomes
#304
of 2,190 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#70,839
of 336,142 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Health and Quality of Life Outcomes
#25
of 61 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,102,082 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 84th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,190 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 336,142 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 61 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 52% of its contemporaries.
