The Chinese version ofYQOL-DHH and WHOQOL-DIS Scales for PD were applied to carry out the investigation. Results 32 items of the original scale were reserved in the Chinese version of the YQOL-DHH.By exploratory factor analysis, the scale could be divided intoself-acceptance, stigma and social participation, which could explain 76.8％ of variability; there was a significant correlation between the factors and the total score (P<0.01);the total content validity of the scale was 0.95;the score of the scale was significantly correlated with the correlation coefficient of WHO-DIS score (P<0.01).
