Abstract

Purpose: In light of the issues associated with the quality of life in people with epilepsy that have been widely reported, this study examined these issues within a Turkey cultural context. The contributing factors to the level of QOL in Turkey where public perception toward epilepsy is relatively unfavorable, may be different from those of other countries.
