In this paper, the notion of equivalence models for quantified Boolean formulas with free variables is introduced. The computational complexity of the equivalence model checking problem is investigated in the general case and in some restricted cases. We also establish a connection between the structure of some quantified Boolean formulas and the structure of models.
