生活质量的一个重要方面是生活满意度。在过去的十年中，由于与生活满意度报告相关的不同心理健康和教育结果，儿童和青少年对这一结构的兴趣有所增加。然而，大多数研究都使用了一般的学生样本，很少了解残疾青年如何看待他们的生活质量。此外，许多残疾学生在完全隔离的寄宿学校或隔离的走读学校生活和/或接受教育。因此，目前还不清楚生活满意度的报告可能会有什么不同，就这些环境设置。使用多维学生的生活满意度量表，全球满意度，以及在一些生活领域的满意度评级进行了比较聋人/听力困难（D/HH）的青年生活在住宅环境和D/HH青年参加走读学校计划。这些报告还与一组听力同行进行了比较。结果显示，域间的相关性，回归系数，和满意度的平均得分不同的残疾和非残疾组之间，并与环境设置。这些研究结果的影响结束的文件。
A key aspect of life quality is life satisfaction. Interest in this construct has increased among children and adolescents over the past decade given the differential mental health and educational outcomes associated with life satisfaction reports. Nevertheless, most research has used general samples of students, with very little understood of how youth with disabilities view the quality of their lives. Further, many students with disabilities live and/or are educated in totally segregated residential schools or segregated day school programs. It is thus unclear how life satisfaction reports may differ with respect to these environmental settings. Using the Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale, global satisfaction, as well as satisfaction ratings across a number of life domains was compared among Deaf/Hard-of-Hearing (D/HH) youth living in residential settings and D/HH youth attending day school programs. These reports were also compared with a group of hearing peers. Results revealed that the inter-domain correlations, regression coefficients, and satisfaction mean scores varied between the disability and non-disability groups, and with respect to environmental setting. Implications of these findings conclude the paper.
