Abstract:

Objective     To explore the reliability and validity of SF-36 in measuring the quality of life of the Three Gorges migrants. Methods     Subjects in this study were selected with the cluster random sampling method. SF-36 was used to measure the quality of life of 324 migrants who moved to Shandong Province. A questionnaire was used for collecting data.  Results    The reliability and validity of SF-36 were acceptable. The split-half reliability was 0.926. The Cronbach α coefficient of all dimensions was >0.80. Two common factors representing the physical and mental health were obtained by factor analysis. SF-36 had good differential validity.   Conclusion    SF-36 has good reliability and validity and can be used to measure the quality of life of the Three Gorges migrants.
