See [[Measures of suffering]]. There are two ways to do Time Trade Off study:
- If they had 10 years to live, ask people how much time they will trade off from it to live in perfect health v/s living all 10 years in diseased condition
- Ask people what will be average response to the question above (this simulates the Keynesian beauty contest, which supposedly debiases answers. See [[Measures of suffering]] and [[Analysis of a measure of suffering from Twitter survey]]).
**Research question**: how do responses for the two conditions above differ for a large enough surveyed sample?
This study probably hasn't been done, so should be interesting to do. It'll be a novel contribution to the area of TTO research.
**Idea*: perhaps we can take depression as a condition and try replicating results from [Do individuals with and without depression value depression differently? And if so, why?](https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11136-015-1018-3) (i.e. mild depression, severe or no depression as category of respondents randomly paired to answer mild or severe depression as a diseased state). See if any differences emerge.
