## Details

Labelling should be as defined by the questionnaire. 02-06 should start with 0:3, 02a-06b should start with 1:4.

### Regarding work scoring

The score calculation manual available for the PASE questionnaire, all types of work should be included. According to the article by Washburn RA. et al (1999) sitting work is not included in the item 10 score. This differentiation is added with the option to set `adjust_work` to exclude item 10b category 1 work (set `TRUE`).

### Regarding output

Output includes sub scores as well as sums, but also to columns assessing data quality and completeness. If any field has not been filled, `score_incompletes` will return `TRUE`. If all measures are missing `score_missings` is `TRUE`. If `adjust_work==TRUE`, 10b has to be filled, or `score_incompletes` will be set `TRUE`.
