Development of methods for the mapping of utilities using mixture models: An application to asthma

Objectives: To develop methods for mapping to preference-based measures using mixture model approaches. These methods are compared to map from the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) to both EQ5D-5L and HUI-3 as the target health utility measures in an international dataset.
