  • 描述: Quality of life (QoL) describes multiple dimensions of perceived position in life and can range from broad life satisfaction to more specific school functioning ratings. Despite the value of QoL research, limited work examines quality of life (QoL) of students with oral and written language difficulties/disabilities. The goal of this study was to examine how QoL ratings compare across academic and school functioning (i.e. proximal outcomes) and overall life satisfaction (i.e. distal outcomes) measures for clinically referred students with language-based learning challenges, as well as to explore correlations among proximal and distal QoL indices. Participants included children with written language challenges (n= 24, ages 8-14) and children with oral language challenges (n= 14, ages 5-13). Groups were evaluated on parent-reported quality of life measures (PROMIS, PedsQL, LD/QOL15) assessing the following domains: life satisfaction, physical functioning, school functioning, social functioning, emotional functioning, and psychological functioning. Results demonstrate the psychological domain to be the lowest scored domain for students with written language challenges and school/academic domains to be the lowest scored domain for students with oral language challenges, whereas social and physical functioning domains were the highest rated domain for both groups. Correlations were statistically significant between life satisfaction and psychological domains for the written language challenges group and between life satisfaction and physical, social, and school domains for the oral language challenges group. Implications are discussed regarding proximal and distal QoL ratings in this population.
