Figure 1. Patient history transmittal forIn Dandruff Record Form In addition to the subject's identification, this form contained the dermatologist's evaluation of the subject's hair and scalp condition at each observation interval. Included in the evaluation were the extent of dandruff scaling (both loose and adherent) the condition of the scalp whether dry, oily, or normal and the degree of itching. The derma- tologist was also afforded a place to note the presence of supraorbital dermatoses, which are often associated with dandruff. If such derma- tiffs was reported, it was described under doctor's comments. Six ob- servations were made by the dermatologist during the eight-week study. Dandruff Questionnaire The Questionnaire posed key questions about the subject's personal response to the test product and a comparison to previously used prod- ucts. The subject was asked to note the extent of hair loss (if any) dur- ing the last week of the study.

Patient record transmittal form Coding System A coding method was established for tabulating entries on the trans- mittals in order to simplify key punching and to eliminate the need for a large volume of alphabetic information in core storage. It also simplified computer program logic and reduced machine processing time. Each test product was assigned a two-digit number called group number. The subjects were assigned three-digit numbers called subject number. A scale for evaluations to record severity of each condition under study was included and is shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3. Entries in spaces provided for doctor's comments, previously used hair and scalp products, and the subject's recorded likes and dislikes about the test product were all assigned two-digit numbers for coding. Through the use of this coding system, the printed reports were far more comprehens- ible in that they were not cluttered with verbose descriptions,
