生活质量(QOL)是从概念上和操作上定义的,包括评价立场、多维性和主观与客观方面的基本特征。QOL评估的必要维度包括主观和客观成分,特别是属于行为能力,日常生活领域的自我评估质量,环境和广义心理健康的属性。这些QOL方面都不应该被排除在痴呆症患者的评估之外,但许多这样的人需要使用不依赖于自我报告的指标。现有的措施和评估技术进行了讨论,分组为属性评级(单一评级的人谁观察的人在一段时间内)和直接观察方法(只有行为,因为它是在持续的方式观察)。属性评级是时间使用质量,社会互动和影响状态的领域,并直接观察行为,影响显示和环境质量的领域进行了讨论。
Quality of life (QOL) is defined both conceptually and operationally in terms of essential characteristics of evaluational stance, multidimensionality, and subjective-versus-objective aspects. Necessary dimensions for QOL assessment include both subjective and objective components, specifically attributes falling into sectors of behavioral competence, self-assessed quality of domains of everyday life, environment, and generalized psychological well-being. None of these QOL facets should be excluded from assessment in people with dementia, but many such people require the use of indicators that do not depend on self-report. Existing measures and assessment techniques are discussed as grouped into attribute ratings (single ratings provided by someone who observes the person over some extended period of time) and direct observational methods (only behavior as it is observed in ongoing fashion). Attribute ratings are the domains of time use quality, social interaction, and affect states, and direct observation in domains of behavior, affect display, and environmental quality are discussed.
