  1. a 3 asthma participants excluded from mean calculation were diagnosed in early childhood/infancy.
  2. b Clinician-reported for focus group asthma and COPD samples (US only)
  3. c Cognitive debriefing interview sample collected in UK only: asthma n = 16; COPD n = 19
  4. d Focus group/interview samples collected in UK only: asthma n = 39; COPD n = 29. Cognitive debriefing interview samples collected in UK only: asthma n = 16; COPD n = 19
  5. e Scores range from 0 to 100 with higher scores reflecting more impairment. COPD participants only.
  6. f Scores range from 1 to 7 with higher scores reflecting more favorable health status. Asthma participants only.
