HEREDIA-BOLANOS, Dayana Marcela e GRISALES-ROMERO, Hugo. Health-related quality of life for children and adolescents living in a temporary home, Colombia. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.2, pp.107-126. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.17205.
This is a cross-sectional study that had the objective of determining the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) for 92 children and adolescents between 8 and 18 years of age who lived in a temporary home in a Colombian municipality. Tests were applied for the correlation of the difference of averages and a logical model was developed to identify the factors that were associated with the HRQoL outcome. No differences were found between the averages of the HRQoL scores according to sex (p = 0.094). The aspects of physical activity and health, feelings, self-perception, autonomy, family life, relationships with peers and school environment were higher than the average HRQoL. Being a woman and having suffered some type of limitation caused participants to have HRQoL scores below 70 points.
