Subjective Well‐Being and Its Predictors in Parkinson's Disease and Dystonia: A Comparative Study

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Quality of life (QoL) is a commonly used outcome measure in people with chronic neurological diseases (CND). As valuable as QoL is, it does not take into account aspects of subjective well‐being (SWB) such as subjective happiness, meaning in life, life satisfaction and hope; all constructs that are considered central to well‐being ...
