The document provides a scale for ranking health conditions and problems according to priorities. It consists of 5 criteria: nature of the condition, modifiability, preventive potential, and salience. Scores are calculated by multiplying the criteria scores. The document then provides examples of applying the scale to prioritize 4 problems: obesity, excessive gadget use, stress from job loss, and financial problems. Obesity and gadget use are identified as health threats, job stress as a wellness state, and financial problems as a foreseeable crisis. Scores are calculated to prioritize the problems.
