Health-related quality of life and its association with socioeconomic status and mental health in 5- to 7-year-old children: a cross-sectional study
Our results provide important insights into the associations between SES, mental health, and HRQoL in young children. Given the strong association between mental health problems and HRQoL in Grade 1 children, the assessment of both is essential, so that early interventions, an improved caring environment, and nurturing support can be initiated.
