Assessment of Life Habits — Comprehensive Participation in Daily and Social Roles
The Assessment of Life Habits (LIFE-H) is a comprehensive, interview-based measure that evaluates participation in 11 key life domains—from basic self-care and nutrition to work, recreation, and community engagement. Developed in Quebec by Fougeyrollas, Noreau, and colleagues, LIFE-H operationalizes the ICF concept of 'participation' through a detailed assessment of how individuals accomplish (or struggle with) the habits and roles essential to life in their community.
