Empirical evidence for a process-based model of health-related quality of life using network analysis by Nicolette Stogios, Nicolette Stogios, Troy Francis, Troy Francis, Rachel G. Peiris, Aleksandra Stanimirovic, Aleksandra Stanimirovic, Valeria Rac, Valeria Rac, Robert P. Nolan, Robert P. Nolan

“…In support of this approach, we developed a novel HRQL assessment tool called the EUROIA: EvalUation of goal-diRected activities to prOmote wellbeIng and heAlth, which uses self-report data to assess the frequency with which individuals engage in a sample of goal-directed activities in pursuit of living well.MethodsWe conducted a network analysis to evaluate the hypothesis that the EUROIA subscales would demonstrate a meaningful pattern of associations with an established HRQL measure and associated indices of psychosocial functioning and efficacy in self-managing a chronic medical condition.ResultsThe EUROIA is associated with established indices of HRQL in a manner that is theoretically consistent with our process-based model. …”
