Quality of life

Quality of life ( QOL ) is the general well-being of individuals and societies, outlining negative and positive features of life. It observes life satisfaction, including everything from physical health, family, education, employment, wealth, safety, security to freedom, religious beliefs, and the environment. [1] QOL has a wide range of contexts, including the fields of international development , healthcare, politics and employment. It is important not to mix up the concept of QOL with a more recent growing area of health related QOL (HRQOL [2] ). An assessment of HRQOL is effectively an evaluation of QOL and its relationship with health.

Quality of life ( QOL ) is the general well-being of individuals and societies. QOL has a wide range of contexts, including the fields of international development , healthcare, politics and employment. Quality of life should not be confused with the concept of standard of living , which is based primarily on income. Instead, standard indicators of the quality of life include not only wealth and employment but also the built environment, physical and mental health, education, recreation and leisure time, and social belonging.

Unlike standard of living , quality of life is not a tangible thing, and so cannot be measured directly. It consists of two components: physical and psychological. The physical aspect includes things such as health , diet , and protection against pain and disease . The psychological aspect includes stress , worry , pleasure and other positive or negative emotional states.

The well-being or quality of life of a population is an important concern in economics and political science . It is measured by many social and economic factors. A large part is standard of living , the amount of money and access to goods and services that a person has; these numbers are fairly easily measured. Others like freedom , happiness , art , environmental health, and innovation are far harder to measure. This has created an inevitable imbalance as programs and policies are created to fit the easily available economic numbers while ignoring the other measures, that are very difficult to plan for or assess.

Measuring well-being is an overlapping concern of both environmental economics and various movements for social justice . It is also broadly associated with the labor movement and Green Parties in some countries. It seeks to index pensions, entitlements, and other benefits to losses in well-being due to "environmental and social deficit".
