title: [Quality of life is a dynamic concept].
abstract: Quality of life is a subjective evaluation/appreciation of the degree to which someone is satisfied with life in general. This subjective evaluation is not necessarily consistent. Factors determining one's quality of life may differ interpersonally, but also intrapersonally. Quality of life is a dynamic concept which cannot easily be expressed mathematically.
