Objectives: The purpose of our study was to verify whether the Seven Emotions evaluated by Guibi-Tang questionnaire (GTQ) were predictive of self-awareness level of one's quality of life (QOL). Methods: Eighty volunteers participated in this study and completed the GTQ. In addition, the volunteers were asked to answer one's self-awareness of the QOL using numerical scale. Factor analysis was conducted for extraction of GTQ factors. Structural Equation Model (SEM) was conducted to verify path structure. Results: The estimates of the four factors on the level of one's QOL demonstrated that Chest Factor (=-0.330) showed the highest level of correlation followed by the seven emotions (=-0.213); Deficient fire (=0.141); and Qi Deficiency (=-0.023). Model fit is $X^2$=34.740 (df=36), GFI=0.931, AGFI=0.873, NFI=0.867, RFI=0.797, IFI=0.975, TLI=1.006, CFI=1.009, RMSEA=0.000. Therefore, considering these values, SEM could be accepted as a workable model. Conclusions: Our study results suggest that According to SEM, The Seven Emotions evaluated by GTQ are predictable for self-awareness of one's QOL.
