The findings support the impression that, despite the conservative culture, child abuse is being experienced by a significant number of children in the Arab world. Preventive education in this culture should include limits on child disciplinary measures, the vulnerable groups identified, the impact on psychosocial functioning, and the protective effect of parental harmony.
QOL was sensitive to distressing and unfulfilled life circumstances. Hence, coupled with the difficulty of conducting house-to-house surveys in such a conservative society, a cost effective way of tracking societal distress is by including a brief and responsive measure of QOL during national census exercises. Clinicians need to be aware of QOL issues because QOL is associated with clinical and social variables. The differences between GF (representing subjective well-being) and the domains, has implications for QOL theory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
