BACKGROUND
The increased use of the quality of life (QOL) concept internationally suggests the need to evaluate its etic (universal) and emic (culture-bound) properties. This study replicated and expanded a previous cross-cultural study on QOL.
METHOD
The three respondent groups (consumers, parents and professionals; total n = 781) were from four European countries: France, Belgium, Italy and Poland. The Cross Cultural Survey of Quality of Life Indicators was used to assess the importance and use of eight core dimensions of QOL. Two hypotheses were tested: (1) the etic properties would be demonstrated if there were similar profiles for the respondent and geographical groups, and if indicators grouped into the proposed QOL domains; and (2) the emic properties would be demonstrated if there were significant differences on scores across groups.
RESULTS
Results supported both hypotheses.
CONCLUSION
The present study replicated the findings of a large cross-cultural study that the QOL construct has both etic and emic properties.
背景
生活质量（QOL）概念在国际上的使用日益增加，这表明有必要评估其文化普遍性（etic）和文化特异性（emic）属性。本研究重复并扩展了先前一项关于生活质量的跨文化研究。
方法
三个受访者群体（消费者、家长和专业人士；共781人）来自四个欧洲国家：法国、比利时、意大利和波兰。使用生活质量指标跨文化调查来评估生活质量八个核心维度的重要性和使用情况。检验了两个假设：（1）如果受访者和地理群体具有相似的概况，并且指标被归类到提议的生活质量领域中，则将证明文化普遍性属性；（2）如果不同群体之间的得分存在显著差异，则将证明文化特异性属性。
结果
结果支持了这两个假设。
结论
本研究重复了一项大型跨文化研究的结果，即生活质量结构具有文化普遍性和文化特异性属性。
