The Quality-of-Life Profile– Adolescents’ Version was developed in 1995 in a joint project involving the Centre for Health Promotion and the School of Nursing, Laurentian University, Sudbury, Ontario. Quality of life areas were identified through direct dialogue with adolescents. The instrument was developed with 54 items about satisfaction with aspects of life and an additional 9 items for control and opportunities. (Raphael 1996)
