A study of Filipina migrant workers’ subjective health in Hong Kong and an assessment of eight scoring methods for the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) by Tim F. Liao, Rebecca Yiqing Gan

“…Through this investigation, we also intend to shed light on Filipina migrant workers’ subjective health in Hong Kong, our case study.MethodsThis study investigates the feasibility of eight such scoring methods—six latent-variable models, the raw score index, and the US-based method—for analyzing an SF-12 version 2 instrument via a range of bootstrapped samples of varying sizes and an empirical study of the original 2017 Hong Kong Domestic Workers survey data with a set of covariates associated with Filipina migrant domestic workers’ subjective mental and physical health in Hong Kong.FindingsOur analyses favor the latent-variable factor model with the normal distribution and the identity link for analyzing the SF-12 version 2 type of data. …”
