====== 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. see [[Health related quality of life]] see [[European Quality of Life Questionnaire 5 level version]] see [[Glioblastoma quality of life]] see [[Vestibular schwannoma quality of life]] see [[Barthel Index]] of activities of daily living (BIADL)
