Scale Development

We  have the experience to create new scales when necessary. Dr. Amtmann was a part of the PROMIS initiative and has extensive experience in scale development for people with MS, epilepsy, and other conditions.  We have recently developed proxy- and self-report scales to measure itch interference in children with burn injuries.
