Health Survey scale SF–36 is one of the most popular methods assessing life quality associated with health. The questionnaire presents general well-being and degree of contentment with human functioning influenced by health state. In Maisky settlement referenced to a zone of Semipalatinsk nuclear test site, the studied adult population demonstrated satisfactory social life conditions. The examinees’ evaluation of their health state in general health scale at age 18–29 years averaged to 61.66±3.15 points, at the age 30–39 years — 59.27±2.11 points, at the age 40–50 years — nearly 2 times lower than normal values. Health state of all population is limited by role-oriented physical functioning and vitality — that promotes anxiety and psychological ill-being.
