The paper's here. I haven't read it in detail, but it should include the examples you mentioned (harm to the community, economic cost, family adversities and crime are all categories they considered). Clearly it's going to be subjective to some extent, but given that it was published in The Lancet and I've seen it quoted quite a few times, I presume it was reasonably well done.
