Hybrid measures

I guess this could mean all sorts of things but the only way I encounter it is for measures like PSYCHLOPS which combine a nomothetic rating, in PSYCHLOPS it is “How have you felt in yourself this last week?” and PSYCHLOPS combines this with three client/user generated idiographic ratings which have a stem, e.g. “Choose the problem that troubles you most” to which the participant fills in a problem of their chosing, in their own words, and then rates it on “How much has it affected you over the last week?”

Pretty much the only measure I come across under the term “hybrid measure” is PSYCHLOPS but SCORE measures are also hybrid measures. The SCORE-15 starts with 15 nomothetic questions about the participant’s family, such as:
“People in my family interfere too much in each other’s lives”
However, it also has a client generated item:
“What is the problem/challenge that brought you to therapy?
The main problem is …”
which is rated on:
“How severe is it? Please mark your answer on the line below:”

I don’t recall seeing much analysis of that item in papers about or using SCORE, I’d love to hear of work that does focus on this.
