“…Although several researcher highlight that next to children's self-reported QoL, parents' views about their children's QoL should be measured, there is discrepancy between the agreement of parent-child proxy reports on children's QoL in the majority of the studies (Bastiaansen et al, 2004; Britto et al, 2004; Chang and Yeh, 2005; Cremeens et al, 2006; Russell et al, 2006; Eiser and Jenney, 2007; Jozefiak et al, 2008; Upton et al, 2008; Danckaerts et al, 2009; Eiser and Varni, 2013; Dallos et al, 2014), including the very few ones on children with SpLD (Rotsika et al, 2011; Karande and Venkataraman, 2013). Comparing the QoL of children with SpLD and typically developed peers (Rotsika et al, 2011), found significant differences between the parent-child proxy ratings: mothers of children with SpLD reported significantly lower scores regarding the child's functioning in school, but significantly higher scores in their physical and emotional well-being.…”

“…Although the construct of the quality of life (QoL)—which includes psychical, psychological, and social aspects—has been recently gaining importance as a multidimensional measure of overall well-being of children with psychiatric problems (Bastiaansen et al, 2004, 2005; Dallos et al, 2014), there is very little research on the QoL in children with RD (Karande et al, 2009; Rotsika et al, 2011; Karande and Venkataraman, 2012, 2013; Ginieri-Coccossis et al, 2013). All these studies examined children with SpLD and not only children with RD.…”

Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate self- and parent-rated quality of life (QoL) in children with a reading disability (RD) and the impact of comorbid psychopathology, with special focus on age and gender differences.Methods: Using the Dyslexia Differential Diagnosis Maastricht-Hungarian standard test, 127 children (aged < 18) were included in the RD group and 81 in the control group. To measure comorbid psychopathology, the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) was administered. To evaluate the children's QoL self- and parent-rated versions of the Measure of Quality of Life for Children and Adolescents (ILK) were used. Group differences in QoL and psychopathology were assessed using Mann-Whitney U-tests. Moderated mediational models were tested in which comorbid psychopathology mediated the relationship between group membership and self- and parent-rated QoL, which was dependent on gender. Child's age and parents' level of education were included as covariates.Results: The RD group showed lower QoL than the controls in several domains, according to the parent-report, while no differences between the two groups were found, according to self-report. In boys, results revealed conditional and indirect effects of group membership on self- and parent-rated QoL through comorbid psychopathology (−0.046, BCa 95% CI: −0.135 to 0.043 and 0.064, BCa 95% CI: 0.024–0.111, respectively) as well as a conditional direct effect of group membership on parent-reported (−0.098, BCa 95% CI: 0.012–0.184), but not self-rated, QoL. No relationship was found for girls.Conclusions: This study highlights the importance of measuring QoL and comorbid psychopathology in children with RDs from more sources and accounting for gender and age differences.

“…As an important measure of individuals’ general state, the concept of quality of life (QoL) and its relationship with physical and mental health disorders has received increased attention over recent years [28,29]. Research shows, that subjective well-being is an important dimension of overall perceived QoL [30].…”

Physical disorders and anxiety are frequently comorbid. This study investigates the characteristics of physical disorders, self-rated heath, subjective well-being and anxiety in adolescents. Data were drawn from the Saving and Empowering Young Lives in Europe cohort study. From 11 countries 11,230 adolescents, aged 14–16 years were included. Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), WHO-5 Well-Being Index and five questions prepared for this study to evaluate physical illnesses and self-rated heath were administered. Anxiety levels were significantly higher in adolescents who reported having physical disability (p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 0.40), suffering from chronic illnesses (p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 0.40), impairments associated to health conditions (p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 0.61), or reported poor to very poor self-rated health (p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 1.11). Mediational analyses revealed no direct effect of having a chronic illness/physical disability on subjective well-being, but the indirect effects through higher levels of anxiety were significant. Functional impairment related to health conditions was both directly and indirectly (through higher levels of anxiety) associated with lower well-being. The co-occurrence of anxiety and physical disorders may confer a greater level of disability and lower levels of subjective well-being. Clinicians have to screen anxiety, even in a subthreshold level in patients with choric physical illness or with medically unexplained physical symptoms.

Correlación entre discapacidad y calidad de vida en niños con trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividadCorrelation between disability and quality of life in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder INVESTIGACIÓN ORIGINAL | Resumen | Introducción. El trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad (TDAH) genera limitaciones en las actividades y restricciones en la participación, de allí que deba abordarse desde un modelo biopsicosocial que considere la dimensión calidad de vida (CV).Objetivo. Correlacionar el grado de discapacidad a nivel escolar con la CV en niños con TDAH.Materiales y métodos. Se realizó un estudio correlacional en una muestra no probabilística de 106 niños de 8 a 12 años de Cali, Colombia. Se utilizaron los instrumentos MINIKID, KIDSCREEN-27 versiones padres y niños y el Cuestionario para Limitaciones en Actividad y Restricciones en Participación TDAH Versión Profesores. Se hizo un análisis descriptivo de características sociodemográficas y CV y un análisis correlacional entre grado de discapacidad con CV.Resultados. El promedio de edad de los niños estudiados fue de 9.6±1.19 años, predominó el género masculino y TDAH de tipo combinado. La CV es bien valorada por padres y niños, pero los puntajes bajos se presentan en la dimensión "El colegio". No se encontró correlación entre CV y grado de discapacidad.Conclusión. Los padres y niños con TDAH valoran positivamente la CV, pero hay tendencia a una valoración menor en la dimensión colegio.No existe correlación entre CV y grado de discapacidad a nivel escolar.Palabras clave: Trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad; Niños con discapacidad; Calidad de vida (DeCS).

Consequently, this condition should be addressed based on a biopsychosocial model that considers the quality of life (QL) dimension.Objective: To correlate the degree of disability at school with the QL in children with ADHD. Materials and methods:A correlational study was conducted on a non-probability sample of 106 children aged 8 to 12 in Cali, Colombia. The instruments used were MINIKID, KIDSCREEN-27 for parents and children, and the Activity Limitations and Participation Restrictions of Children with ADHD Questionnaire, teachers version. A descriptive analysis of socio-demographic characteristics and QL, as well as a correlational analysis between degree of disability and QL were carried out. Results:The average age of the children studied was 9.6±1.19 years, with predominance of the male sex and combined ADHD. QL was positively assessed by parents and children, but low scores are observed in the "The School" ...
