本文探讨了年龄和性别对严重和持续性精神疾病患者主观生活质量的影响。主观生活质量进行了评估，在一组95名男性和70名女性使用生活领域的满意度量表（SLDS）和五个开放式的问题。虽然统计分析显示，男性和女性在生活质量方面没有差异，但年龄与满意度有系统的关系，老年参与者对生活的满意度高于年轻人。对开放式问题的回答显示，年龄较大，更满意的受访者中很少有人表示担忧，渴望改变和对未来的计划。这些结果进行了讨论的主观生活质量，愿望和康复过程之间的联系。
This paper addresses the effect of age and gender on the subjective quality of life of people with severe and persistent mental illness. Subjective quality of life was assessed in a group of 95 men and 70 women using the Satisfaction with Life Domains Scale (SLDS) and five open-ended questions. Although statistical analyses showed no difference between men and women on quality of life, age was systematically related to satisfaction level with older participants being more satisfied with their lives than their younger counterparts. Responses to the open-ended questions revealed that fewer of the older, more satisfied respondents expressed worries, desire for change and plans for the future. These results are discussed with respect to the links between subjective quality of life, aspirations and the rehabilitation process.
