The distinction among the concepts of comfort, well-being and QoL is often unclear.This ambiguity can lead to redundancies, gaps, and knowledge dispersion.The concepts are not surrogate terms but related concepts sharing common attributes.
To analyze the differences and similarities of the concepts of comfort, well-being and quality of life (QoL).
Review of concept analysis research on PubMed, Cinahl () and Scielo, using the search terms "Comfort", "Well-being", "Quality of Life" and "Concept Analysis".
Eighteen studies were included. Comfort is a broader holistic concept while well-being is mainly related to psycho-spiritual dimensions. QoL reflects the individual perception of satisfaction with life.
The concepts are not surrogate terms, but related concepts sharing common attributes. Caution should be taken in further research, particularly as regards the correct use and framing of the concepts.
舒适、幸福感和生活质量这些概念之间的区别往往并不明确。这种模糊性可能导致冗余、差距和知识分散。这些概念不是替代术语,而是具有共同属性的相关概念。
分析舒适、幸福感和生活质量(QoL)概念的异同。
通过在PubMed、护理学与健康领域数据库(Cinahl)和科学电子在线图书馆(Scielo)上检索“舒适”“幸福感”“生活质量”和“概念分析”等检索词,对概念分析研究进行综述。
纳入了18项研究。舒适是一个更广泛的整体概念,而幸福感主要与心理精神层面相关。生活质量反映了个体对生活满意度的感知。
这些概念不是替代术语,而是具有共同属性的相关概念。在进一步研究中应谨慎,特别是在这些概念的正确使用和界定方面。
