Comparisons of QOL Measures
Table 3 shows small to medium effect sizes for the relationships between
the three QOL measures. For the parent PedsQL, posture was only
correlated with the subscales of pain and nausea. In contrast, the child
PedsQL was correlated with the total score, nausea, treatment anxiety,
and cognitive scales. On the parent PedsQL, the Faces Scale was
correlated with the total score, pain, worry, and appearance. For the
child PedsQL, the Faces Scale was also correlated with the total score,
pain, and cognitive scales. Posture and the Faces Scale were positively
correlated.
