LOINC description : The WHO Quality of Life - BREF's 26 questions assess quality of life in four areas,
physical, psychological, social and environmental. Responses to each question are
scored from 1 to 5. Raw scores for each area are summed and then converted to either
a 4-20 scale, for comparison to WHOQOL-100, or a 0-100 scale for comparison across
domains. Higher scores are associated with higher quality of life. The WHOQOL-BREF
has been cross-culturally validated and is available in many languages. [PMID: 15085902];
