1Department of Special Education, Peabody College, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37203, USA.
Abstract:
A consensus list of 15 dimensions and corresponding components of quality of life was derived from the literature and proposed as a conceptual model. Eighty-seven empirical studies found in the applied research then were analyzed, and the proposed model was found to be supported by 1,243 empirical measures. In addition, studies were analyzed with respect to (a) demographic variables, (b) type of investigation, (c) method of assessment, (d) psychometric properties of assessments used, and (e) common dimensions of measures investigated and their frequency of measurement. Based upon findings, issues regarding methodology, implications for policy and practice in the field, and recommendations for future research were discussed.
