Short Description of Instrument |
The Headache Needs Assessment Survey (HANA) is a brief, self-administered questionnaire that assesses two dimensions of the impact of migraine: frequency and bothersomeness. This instrument has seven questions with the corresponding subscales: Anxiety/Worry, Depression/Discouragement, Self- control, Energy, function/Work, Family/Social Activities, and Overall Impact. For each item, the respondent provides data on both frequency and bothersomeness. |
Psychometric Properties |
The HANA has good internal consistency, reliability, construct validity and responsiveness. The HANA has demonstrated good test-retest reliability (.77) and internal consistency (.92). There is statistically significant correlation between HANA and Headache Disability Inventory total scores and high correlations with disease and treatment characteristics. |
Scoring |
Scoring for the HANA is the product of the item scores that resulted from seven weighted problem scores. These scores are summed to yield a total score (range, 7 to 175). |
