The analysis of data considered the assessment of the importance of each domain made by participants. The weight of each domain was analyzed using regression equations.Results:

Among women, social domain was the best evaluated domain and among men, the physical health domain. According to participants, physical and psychological health had the higher weight. The environmental domain had the higher weight on the overall assessment of quality of life.Conclusions:
