Results: Subjects' quality of life was correlated with PTSD risk (r=-.52, p<.001), social stigma (r=-.16, p=.029),and social support (r=.26, p=.001). The Factors influencing the quality of life were gender (¥â=.26, p=.001),occupation (¥â=-.24, p=.001), PTSD risk (¥â=-.48, p<.001), social support (¥â=.19, p=.004), and explanatory powerwere approximately 37% (F=14.03, p<.001).
