RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the present study was to find out if there are differences in terms of sex, age, or country of origin for the components of health-related quality of life (HRQL) in samples of adolescents from three cities-in Argentina, Brazil, and Chile, respectively-using data collected through an internationally recognized and validated survey questionnaire, KIDSCREEN-52. METHODS: The KIDSCREEN-52 questionnaire was administered to 1 357 adolescents between 12 and 17 years of age (48.6% of them male) in selected samples in the three countries. Univariate analysis of variation (ANCOVA) was used. Not only sex and age differences, but also differences for each component of HRQL, were found between the three country groups. RESULTS: The data showed significant differences between the three countries for each of the specific components of HRQL. Males scored significantly higher than females in the following components: Physical Well-being (P < 0.001), Psychological Well-being (P = 0.019), Moods and Emotions (P < 0.001), Self-perception (P = 0.001), Autonomy (P < 0.001), and Parent Relations and Home Life (P = 0.008). Furthermore, the average scores for Physical Well-being (P = 0.001), Psychological Well-being (P = 0.001), Self-Perception (P = 0.038), Autonomy (P = 0.001), Parent Relations and Home Life (P = 0.001), School Environment (P = 0.001), and Financial Resources (P = 0.022) showed a significantly declining trend with each advancing year, while average scores for the component Social Acceptance (Bullying) increased significantly with age (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The evidence suggests that interventions in disease prevention and health promotion should be developed for specific target groups, using appropriate actions depending on the sex and age of the adolescents.

RESUMO

OBJETIVO: El objetivo del presente trabajo es determinar diferencias en relación con el sexo, la edad y el país de origen, en los componentes de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS), en una muestra de adolescentes de tres ciudades localizadas en Argentina, Brasil y Chile, utilizando datos recogidos mediante un cuestionario validado y reconocido internacionalmente: el KIDSCREEN-52. MÉTODOS: Se aplicó el cuestionario KIDSCREEN-52 a 1 357 adolescentes con edades comprendidas entre 12 y 17 años (48,6% varones) en muestras seleccionadas en los tres países. Se utilizó el análisis de varianza univariada (ANCOVA) y se identificaron diferencias entre países de los adolescentes, sexo y edad en cada componente de CVRS. RESULTADOS: Los datos indican diferencias significativas en componentes específicos de CVRS entre los tres países. Los varones consiguieron puntuaciones significativamente más elevadas que las mujeres en los componentes Bienestar físico (P < 0,001), Bienestar psicológico (P = 0,019), Estado de ánimo y emociones (P < 0,001), Autopercepción (P = 0,001), Autonomía (P < 0,001) y Relación con los padres y vida familiar (P = 0,008). Las puntuaciones medias atribuidas a los componentes Bienestar físico (P = 0,001), Bienestar psicológico (P = 0,001), Autopercepción (P = 0,038), Autonomía (P = 0,001), Relación con los padres y vida familiar (P = 0,001), Entorno escolar (P = 0,001) y Recursos económicos (P = 0,022) muestran un descenso significativo con el avance de la edad; en cuanto al componente Rechazo (social/bullying), los puntajes medios encontrados aumentaron significativamente con la edad (P < 0,001). CONCLUSIONES: Las evidencias encontradas sugieren que las intervenciones en prevención y promoción de la salud deberían ser concebidas para llegar a los grupos-objetivo específicos y tendrían que contemplar acciones de acuerdo con el sexo y la edad de los adolescentes.
