This condition can be treated conservatively, but many people do not seek treatment. The current correlational study assessed women\u2019s knowledge of UI. Specifically, we investigated the relationships between knowledge level about UI and quality of life (QoL), and between severity level of UI and QoL. A convenience cross-sectional sample of 39 older women was obtained from two YMCA locations. Data were analyzed using the Spearman rank-order correlation coefficient. A significant relationship was found between severity of UI and QoL, r\n                    <jats:sub>s<\/jats:sub>\n                    = \u2212.73, p &lt; .001; no relationship was found between knowledge level of UI and QoL, r\n                    <jats:sub>s<\/jats:sub>\n                    = .24, p = .13. Results suggested women\u2019s knowledge about the causes of UI and conservative therapy is limited.
