Research title:
The roles of gender in determining the quality of life
Abstract:
The McGill Quality of Life Questionnaire (MQOL), a
questionnaire relevant to all phases of the disease trajectory for
people with a life-threatening illness. For this research the
questionnaire is to find gender difference in achieving the quality
of life. This questionnaire is organize in three ways: the
existential domain is measured; the physical domain is important
but not predominant; positive contributions to quality of life are
measured. This study was conducted in a palliative care setting
in the past. Now, the study is done in a University involving
university students from the first degree level, masters and
philosophical doctorate. Principal components analysis suggests
four subscales: physical symptoms, psychological symptoms,
outlook on life, and meaningful existence. Construct validity of
the subscales is demonstrated through the pattern of correlations
with the items from the Spitzer Quality of Life Index. The
importance of measuring the existential domain is highlighted by
the finding that, of all the MQOL subscales and Spitzer items,
only the meaningful existence subscale correlated significantly
with a single item scale rating overall quality of life.

Introduction
In the last decade there has been a
great deal of interest in measuring the
quality of life of those who are
medically ill. Our study is to measures
the quality of life of UTM students.
Most instruments designed for this
purpose measure specific physical
symptoms, performance status, the
presence of anxiety and depression,
and social support and/or social role
functioning.
