Assessment
Center is a free, online research management tool. It enables
researchers to create study-specific websites for capturing
participant data securely. Studies can include measures
within the Assessment Center library as well as custom instruments
created or entered by the researcher. PROMIS instruments
(short forms, CATs, profiles) are a central feature of the
instrument library within Assessment Center.
Any PROMIS measure
can be downloaded for administration on paper or be included in an
online study. Detailed statistical information and
development history about PROMIS items and instruments is available
for review.
Assessment
Center enables customization of item or instruments (e.g., format,
randomization, skip patterns), real-time scoring of CATs, storage
of protected health information in a separate, secure database,
automated accrual reports, real-time data export, graphing of
individual CAT or Profile scores, and ability to capture
endorsement of online consent forms among many other
features.
