“额外福利主义”在卫生经济学中得到了一些关注，但在将其与更传统的“福利主义经济学”区分开来方面几乎没有共识。在本文中，我们试图找出每一个的特点，以便系统地比较他们评估替代社会状态的方式。重点是健康问题，尽管这并不意味着是排他性的。具体来说，我们强调四个方面，这两个学校不同：（一）在评估中被认为是相关的结果;（二）相关结果的估值来源;（三）相关结果的加权基础;（四）人际比较。我们的结论是，这些差异是实质性的。(C)2007 Elsevier B. V.保留所有权利。
'Extra-welfarism' has received some attention in health economics, yet there is little consensus on what distinguishes it from more conventional 'welfarist economics'. In this paper, we seek to identify the characteristics of each in order to make a systematic comparison of the ways in which they evaluate alternative social states. The focus, though this is not intended to be exclusive, is on health. Specifically, we highlight four areas in which the two schools differ: (i) the outcomes considered relevant in an evaluation; (ii) the sources of valuation of the relevant outcomes; (iii) the basis of weighting of relevant outcomes and (iv) interpersonal comparisons. We conclude that these differences are substantive. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
