Quality of life is an important component of chronic disease, and the evaluation of healthcare outcomes. There is little discussion in the literature regarding the implications of QoL as a theoretical construct. This study determined the effect of asthma on the QoL of our study population and caregiver\u2019s missed workdays on the child\u2019s QoL scores. A negative relationship was found between the child\u2019s QoL and the caregiver\u2019s missed workdays due to their child\u2019s asthma. The use of SEM and multiple group analysis can help increase awareness and understanding among the complex issues related to childhood asthma and quality of life constructs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quality of Life Estimation with Structural Equation Modeling in School Aged Children with Asthma Sheniz Moonie, Xuan Huang, David A.
