“…Self-rated health status (SRHS) or self-assessed health (SAH) is perhaps one of the most commonly used subjective measures one finds in the literature. This is used both in economics (e.g., Bago d'Uva et al, 2008;Böckerman and Ilmakunnas, 2009) as well as in epidemiology (e.g., Bago d'Uva, O'Donnell, and van Doorslaer, 2008;Geest, Engberg, and Lauritzen, 2004;Ernsten et al, 2011).…”
