LINQ is a word-based card game from Endless Games, introduced at the American International Toy Fair in 2005. A card game is any game using playing cards, either traditional or game-specific. ... 2005 (MMV) was a common year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar. ...
Gameplay requires at least four players, two of which are dealt cards with the same word, while the others receive blanks. The goal is to gain points by correctly naming the players with the word cards (the "linq") while preventing others from doing the same. Players take turns giving one-word clues, giving the "linq" a chance to identify one another while the others try to bluff and confuse them. A player of a game is a participant therein. ... In poker, to bluff is to bet or raise with an inferior hand, or with a hand believed to be inferior. ...
The LINQ measures two types of information need in patients who have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): (a) the patient expresses a need for information, and (b) the patient indicates a behaviour for which there is evidence that this behaviour compromises self-management.
The primary purpose of the LINQ is as a pre-interview assessment.
Karen Hanney was immensely helpful during the development of the LINQ: she had a major role in the administration of the project including patient recruitment, she attended all focus groups, and was responsible for data input.
