By default, version 1.3 of the questionnaire is assumed. For data provided using the version 2 of the SF36 questionnaire, this algorithm is adapted. {title:Options} {p 4 8 2}{it:varlist} must contain the name of the 36 variables representing the 36 items of the questionnaire in the same order than in the questionnaire. {p 4 8 2}{cmd:v2} is required if the version 2 of the SF36 questionnaire is used. {p 4 8 2}{cmd:save}({it:prefix}) saves the scores in new variables. The names of this variable are {it:prefix} followed by the names of the dimensions (PF RP BP GH VT SF RE MH PCS MCS). {p 4 8 2}{cmd:saveref}({it:prefix}) saves the scores of reference in new variables. The names of this variable are {it:prefix} followed by the names of the dimensions (PF RP BP GH VT SF RE MH PCS MCS). {p 4 8 2}{cmd:saveimp}({it:prefix}) saves the imputed values of each items in variables using the string as prefix followed the name of each items. {p 4 8 2}{cmdab:rep:lace} allows replacing the variables defined with the {cmd:save} and {cmd:saveref} options if required. {p 4 8 2}{cmd:age}({it:varname}) and {cmd:sex}({it:varname}) define the age and sex of the individuals in order to compute more precisely the scores of reference. {p 4 8 2}{cmdab:det:ails} displays tables of incoherencs and comparison between computed scores and scores of reference. {title:Example} {cmd:. sf36fr sf36_1 - sf36_11d} {cmd:. sf36fr sf36_1 - sf36_11d, v2 save(score) details replace} {cmd:. sf36fr sf36_1 - sf36_11d, v2 save(score) details saveref(scoreref) age(age) sex(sexe)} {title:Reference} {p 4 8 2}{cmd:Leplège A, Ecosse E, Pouchot J, Coste J, Perneger T} (2001).
