Therefore this study was done to identify the effects perceived daily stress and sense of humor on quality of life for these children. METHODS: The study was a cross-sectional, descriptive study design with 371 participants from 5th and 6th grade children in 5 elementary schools.

RESULTS: Factors influencing quality of life in school-age children were daily stress, sense of humor, satisfaction with daily life, academic performance and home atmosphere. These variables explained 63.0% of quality of life in school-age children. CONCLUSION: Results showed that lower daily stress and higher sense of humor are associated with higher quality of life.
