Quality of life today is one of the most important health outcomes that is necessary to measure in cases such as the evaluation of health interventions in many health researches. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the "quality of life questionnaire" for elementary school students. The statistical population of the present study was the second grade students of Khorramabad and the statistical sample was 480 students who were selected by convenience sampling. The instrument used in the research was the "Quality of Life Questionnaire" of Chou et al. (2017). Exploratory factor analysis was used to evaluate the validity of the questionnaire and confirmatory factor analysis was used to confirm the identified factors. The results showed that the Persian version of the "quality of life questionnaire" for elementary students consists of 4 factors and all 4 factors show acceptable Cronbach's alpha and the validity of the tool is confirmed. Therefore, it can be said that the Persian version of the "quality of life questionnaire" is valid and reliable in the second grade elementary students (fourth, fifth and sixth grade) and can be used in academic counseling centers.
