Validation and administration of a new tablet-based voice-enabled application

Once validated in the first 50 participants, then we will continue to enroll 500 participants who will take the PROMIS-25 and/or PRO-CTCAE Questionnaires at various time points throughout their treatment. This will allow you to directly self-complete the PRO surveys and give you a voice so that your struggles, quality of life, and symptoms can be more accurately and comprehensively communicated to the medical care team. We hope that through administering these PROs questionnaires, it will also improve the overall care, management of

The structural model enables me to analyze counterfactual scenarios. In particular, I concentrate on the modification of the SSDI program that permits partial benefits for the partially disabled.
