Hi,

I would like to investigate which specific cognitive or emotional factors influence the quality of life of TBI patients. I am using a subjective checklist to assess symptom severity of cognitive and emotional sympotms and would like to see, which specific items could predict/correlate with QOL most.

To assess overall Quality of life, should I then use a general Quality of life measure such as the Satisfaction with Life scale or a single item scale, or should I use a health related quality of life scale that is specific to TBI (e.g. QOLIBRI) and already includes subscales that also measure satisfaction with cognitive functions?

Any help would be appreciated !

Thanks!
