The Patient Activation Measure (PAM) assesses an individual’s knowledge, skill, and confidence for managing one’s health and healthcare. Individuals that measure high on this assessment typically understand the importance of taking a pro-active role in managing their health and have the skills and confidence to do so. The PAM was developed using qualitative methods, Rasch analysis, and classical test theory psychometric methods. Developed by Judith Hibbard and colleagues at the University of Oregon, the resulting13-item measure, is a uni-dimensional, interval level, Guttman-like scale. (1- 2) The PAM, has strong psychometric properties, and has been translated into 19 different languages. The measure is currently used to assess patient activation or engagement by researchers and clinicians around the world (3-7).

The Patient Activation Measure (PAM) assesses an individual’s knowledge, skill, and confidence for managing one’s health and healthcare. Individuals that measure high on this assessment typically understand the importance of taking a pro-active role in managing their health and have the skills and confidence to do so. The PAM was developed using qualitative methods, Rasch analysis, and classical test theory psychometric methods. Developed by Judith Hibbard and colleagues at the University of Oregon, the resulting13-item measure, is a uni-dimensional, interval level, Guttman-like scale[1][2]. The PAM, has strong psychometric properties, and has been translated into 19 different languages. The measure is currently used to assess patient activation or engagement by researchers and clinicians around the world[3] [4] [5][6].

Multiple studies show that PAM scores are predictive of most health behaviors, including preventive behaviors (e.g. obtaining screenings and immunizations); healthy behaviors (e.g. healthy diet and regular exercise); self-management behaviors (e.g. monitoring and medication management); and health information seeking[7] [8] [9][10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17]. Higher activated individuals also have better health outcomes and lower rates of costly utilization, such as emergency department use and hospitalizations [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] .

Further there is evidence that with support and appropriate interventions it is possible to increase activation levels in patients [23] [24][25] [26] [27].

The Patient Activation Measure is being used in a number of ways to improve the delivery of health care, including: • a metric to assess the degree to which patient's are prepared and able to self-manage • to tailor support and education to help them increase in activation • to track the impact of interventions and tailored support on increasing patient activation levels • to segment an enrolled patient population, and direct more resources to the low activated patients (a more efficient use of resources ).
