A number of single measures of quality of life have been developed over the last few years. Some of these instruments have been used more frequently than others. Psychometric properties are reported in many of these instruments, and continued psychometric development is needed. Instruments differ in the content tested, and users are encouraged to have specific objectives in mind when selecting an instrument. The continued research interest and activity in the field of single measures has provided beginning tools for both research and clinical evaluations. Quality of life measures add to the depth of evaluation of the impact on cancer and cancer treatment, and provide a measurement dimension that augments that of the historic evaluation via morbidity and mortality statistics. Continued work on single measures for quality of life will provide both researchers and clinicians with valuable tools.
在过去几年中，已经开发了许多单一的生活质量测量方法。其中一些工具的使用频率高于其他工具。许多这些工具都报告了心理测量特性，并且需要持续进行心理测量学的发展。这些工具在测试内容上有所不同，鼓励使用者在选择工具时牢记特定目标。在单一测量领域持续的研究兴趣和活动为研究和临床评估提供了初步工具。生活质量测量增加了对癌症和癌症治疗影响评估的深度，并提供了一个测量维度，增强了通过发病率和死亡率统计进行的历史评估。在生活质量单一测量方面的持续工作将为研究人员和临床医生提供有价值的工具。
