“…In keeping with other studies (Eiser et al, 1995;Sawyer et al, 1999;De Clercq et al, 2004;Russell et al, 2006;Upton et al, 2008), we found a strong correlation between the total QoL ILC scores reported by parents and by their adolescent child, suggesting that in the case of cancer, parents and adolescents share much of the same perspective. Moreover, our finding of lower QoL among children with brain tumours and late effects compared with controls were consistent for parent proxy report and adolescent self-report.…”
