| This study investigated the effects of ethnicity and education on quality of life (QOL). A total of 103 male and female participants were selected from the Argosy University-Dallas student population. Participants (European American n = 31, Latin American n = 19, and African American n = 53) reported their ethnicity, highest level of education completed, household income and gender on a demographics page. The Quality of Life Inventory was used to measure their QOL. Results were analyzed using a two-way ANOVA. Results indicated a significant relationship exists between education level and QOL; and that education level accounted for a greater portion of the variance in overall QOL scores when compared to ethnicity. Ethnicity did not have a significant effect on QOL scores. There was not a significant interaction between ethnicity and education level on QOL scores. |
