Self Reported Health Scale Anchor Pair

Preserve explicit self-report scale anchor wording without assigning health scores.

Loading tool…

Description

Record the wording at both ends of a self-reported health scale.

Personal health logs distinguish observed events, unknown entries, device/source identifiers and chosen day or streak boundaries. A numerical activity duration or recorded symptom label organizes supplied data rather than diagnosing a condition. Fixed 86400-second days differ from civil days affected by timezone and daylight-saving changes.

Record the wording at both ends of a self-reported health scale.

When to use this tool

Use Self Reported Health Scale Anchor Pair when checking the stated personal-log, missingness, time or streak convention.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter scaleId, lowerAnchorWording, upperAnchorWording. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read token. Use the output convention below.

Require nonempty scale ID and lower/upper anchor wording. Encode the ordered triple as JSON text.1

Limitations and assumptions

  • Anchor ordering and a validated instrument are not established; the tool does not score health or interpret a response.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Review original records and calibrated devices; consult qualified health professionals for symptoms, interpretation or actual care decisions.
