Popis: Abstract Background The aims of this study were to establish national disability weights based on the health state preferences of a Dutch general population sample, examine the relation between results and respondent’s characteristics, and compare disability weights with those estimated in the European disability weights study. Methods In this cross-sectional study, a web-based survey was administered to a general population 18–75 years from the Netherlands. The survey included paired comparison questions. Paired comparison data were analysed using probit regression and located results onto the 0-to-1 disability weight scale using non-parametric regression. Bootstrapping was used to estimate 95% uncertainty intervals (95%UI). Spearman’s correlation was used to investigate the relation of probit regression coefficients between respondent’s characteristics. Results 3994 respondents completed the questionnaire. The disability weights ranged from 0.007 (95%UI: 0.003–0.012) for mild distance vision impairment to 0.741 (95% UI: 0.498–0.924) for intensive care unit admission. Spearman’s correlation of probit coefficients between sub-groups based on respondent’s characteristics were all above 0.95 (p
