here's your answer!..
An analysis of scientific papers over the past 20 years shows that a precise, clear and shared definition is a long way off. Often researchers don't even attempt to define the concept, using it instead as an indicator. Among the observations made about "quality of life" is that it encompasses:
life satisfaction, which is subjective and may fluctuate.
multidimensional factors that include everything from physical health, psychological state, level of independence, family, education, wealth, religious beliefs, a sense of optimism, local services and transport, employment, social relationships, housing and the environment.
cultural perspectives, values, personal expectations and goals of what we want from life.
not just the absence of disease but the presence of physical, mental and social well-being. The authors stress the need for multidisciplinary medical teams who can develop a perspective on psychosocial needs and not just physical care.
our interpretation of facts and events, which helps to explain why some disabled people can report an excellent "quality of life" while others can't.
our level of acceptance of our current condition, and our ability to regulate negative thoughts and emotions about that condition.
