Methods A total of 747 perimenopausal women were investigated with the general questionnaire, SF-12, self-efficacy questionnaire, Eysenck personality questionnaire short scale for Chinese (EPQ-RSC), the simplified coping style questionnaire, and the social support rating scale. After surveying, the supposition model was confirmed and revised by path analysis. Results The quality of life perimenopausal women was (56.72±8.47), which was lower than the score of women without perimenopausal syndrome ( 71. 24 ± 5. 66 ) ( P<0. 05 ) . The correlation analysis and structural equation analysis showed that negative coping, utilization of social support, personality characteristics of outgoing and introvert people and degree of perimenopausal syndrome all can directly influence the quality of life ( P<0. 0. 5 ) , and also can indirectly influence the quality of life though self-efficiency. Self-efficiency is the most important predictor variable of quality of life in perimenopausal women.Conclusions Perimenopausal women′s quality of life needs to be improved. Perimenopausal syndrome, self-efficacy, negative coping, utilization of social support and personality characteristics of outgoing and introvert people play an important role in the quality of life of perimenopausal women.
