The distribution of the total scores in Figure 3 is consistent with the hypothesis that the individual Performance Indicators were allocated randomly and supports the finding that correlations between Performance Indicators are weak.
For this, respondents were grouped by gender and age as 55 74 and 75+-year olds and, for an indicator of SES, each respondent was allocated to 'ABC1' or 'C2DE' based on their responses to a range of profiling questions (with ABC1 reflecting higher SES, and C2DE reflecting lower SES groups).
For example, adding a notation on whether a state was allocated based on multiple indicators, a single indicator or via time-based assumptions only.
For each of the six indicators, a score from −2.5 (lowest quality) to 2.5 (highest quality) was allocated to each country.
The Netherlands was allocated 13.
A membership function is defined for each fuzzy condition (set) because an indicator cannot be allocated to just one of the above conditions.
If patients score 4 or more of five on the psychological prognostic indicators, they are allocated to the high-risk subgroup.
If they score between 4 and 9 on the subgrouping tool but have 3 or fewer of the five psychological indicators, they are allocated to the medium-risk subgroup.
Qualitative estimates of each prognostic indicator's value were allocated using an ordinal scale (0 = unfavorable, 1 = minimally favorable, 2 = favorable, 3 = highly favorable), along with any comments regarding each indicator's likely performance and feasibility.
Paying cash, particularly when you have a clear, visual indicator of how much cash is allocated, will probably result in your spending less, overall.
