What is Feasibility and Construct Validity of the Parent Willingness‐to‐pay Technique for Children with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis about?
## Abstract ## Objective To assess the feasibility and construct validity of the willingness‐to‐pay (WTP) technique for measuring health care preferences in families of children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). ## Methods Parents were asked to estimate the monthly US dollar amount they would be willing to pay to obtain for their child the following hypothetical drugs: ARTHRO, which guarantees complete clinical response; and NO‐STOM‐ACHE, a drug that eliminates gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. A yes/no question was used with random assignment of the starting bids.

Four parents (7%) were unwilling to pay anything for any of the studied medications. The mean amount (median; mean percentage of avail
