Abstract
This article describes the development and validation of a new 35-item , multidimensional Comprehensive Quality of Life Scale (ComQol). Psych ometric properties of the scale are described.

It is concluded tha t ComQol constitutes a unique and comprehensive measure of the quality of life construct.
