Abstract

The main purpose of the current study is to investigate the QoL of students with intellectual disabilities from special education teachers' perspectives. 72 special education teachers participated in an Arabic version of the Questionnaire for Measuring Health-Related Quality of Life in Children and Adolescents-Revised (KINDLR). The current study was quantitatively analyzed using both descriptive and inferential analyses via SPSS 23. The results showed that the majority of students with ID had a low level of QoL based on their special education teachers in Taif schools. The results also showed a positive and significant correlation between the school domain and the three domains of QoL including emotional well-being, relationships with friends, and self-esteem. Finally, the current study represented some recommendations and suggestions to support the QoL of students with intellectual disabilities within their schools.
