Impact of Educational Qualification, Age and Number of Family Members on Quality of Life of Physically Disabled: A Comparative Analysis of Boys and Girls

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to look at the effects of age, educational level, and the number of family members on the quality of life of physically challenged people, as well as to compare the disparities between boys and girls in this regard. The study used a cross-sectional comparative approach to collect data from 200 physically challenged people, evenly divided between boys and girls, aged 18 and under. The data found that age was positively connected with quality of life, implying that older people had greater physical quality of life while potentially experiencing reductions in psychological well-being and social interactions. Educational attainment was also positively related to quality of life, with higher attainment associated with improved overall quality of life in a variety of domains. Furthermore, the study discovered a negative relationship between the number of family members and quality of life, implying that an increase in family size was connected with a reduction in the quality of life of physically challenged people.
