Anchor requirement

The scale must be tied to a preferred-future description; unanchored ratings should not be treated as Miracle Question Scale results.

Repeat use

Only ratings using the same preferred-future anchor should be trended together.

What it captures

It captures the rating, the client's explanation, and what would mark a small upward movement when discussed.

Can I use this scale without a Miracle Question preferred future?

No. The scale must be anchored to a preferred-future description to have shared meaning.

Are ratings comparable over time?

Yes, when they use the same preferred-future anchor. A materially changed anchor should start a new series.

Does the scale prove clinical progress?

No. It shows the client's reported rating and explanation over time, not an unsupported clinical outcome conclusion.
