The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of ADL, Occupational adaptation, and personality on the QOL of cognitively impaired patients. The subjects were 87 patients in a recovery phase rehabilitation ward. A cross-sectional research design was used, and a hypothetical model based on previous studies was examined by structural equation modeling. As a result, the appropriateness of fit of the final model was CFI=0.927 and RMSEA=0.051. The standardized coefficients were 0.56 for ADL to QOL and 0.54 for Occupational adaptation to QOL, which were significant. It was found that improving Occupational adaptation had as much effect on the QOL of cognitively impaired patients as improving ADL.
