A Web-Based Adaptation of the Quality of Life in Bipolar Disorder Questionnaire: Psychometric Evaluation Study

Abstract: Background Quality of life (QoL) is considered a key treatment outcome in bipolar disorder (BD) across research, clinical, and self-management contexts. Web-based assessment of patient-reported outcomes offer numerous pragmatic benefits but require validation to ensure measurement equivalency. A web-based version of the Quality of Life in Bipolar Disorder (QoL.BD) questionnaire was developed (QoL Tool). Objective This study aimed to evaluate the psychom… Show more

“…First, only the BD-specific QoL instrument (Quality of Life in Bipolar Disorder [QoL.BD] scale [14]) was adapted to a web-based format (the QoL Tool [26]). The QoL Tool has comparable psychometric properties with those of the pen-and-paper version [27], and individuals with BD reported positive experiences using the web-based format [28]. Second, a novel web-based suite of multimedia evidence-informed self-management tools for people with BD (the Bipolar Wellness Centre [29]) was developed as a partner website to the QoL Tool and has been found to enhance both subjective recovery and QoL [30].…”
