ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the status of the quality of life (QOL) and its related factors of graduate students in military medical universities. Methods: 189 graduate students of a military medical university were assessed with WHO Quality of Life-BREF, Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), Life Event Scale, Perceived Social Support Scale, and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire. Results: The scores of QOL of graduate students in the military medical university were higher than average; The four domains of QOL were significantly correlated with introversion- extroversion, neuroticism, life event, social support, and coping style. The result from multiple regression showed that introversion- extroversion, neuroticism, social support, life event, and negative coping style were main factors influencing QOL. Conclusion: The status of the QOL of graduate students in military medical universities was pretty good; Their QOL could be improved by these factors, such as keeping stable emotion, developing extroversion, seeking social support, relieving the influence of bad life event, reducing negative coping behavior.
