  1. *All individual psychometric PAPERS items are scored on a scale from −1 to 4, with higher scores representing a higher level of quality
  2. aOnly psychometric properties relating to the sustainability aspects of this scale were considered, and at the time of this review, none was found to be available for assessment. There are however properties relating to the other aspects of this scale [35, 79]
