Actual (reported)The research will examine the effects of enhanced peer mentor interactions on facilitating a successful transition to community living following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Participants in the research will be assigned to either (1) the control group that will receive traditional peer mentor types of interactions or (2) to the intervention group that will receive an enhanced peer mentor program called the One-on-One Initiative. Assignment to one of these two groups will occur randomly on admission to Shepherd Center; the only stratifying criteria is injury level - C6 and above vs. C7 and below.

Actual (reported)Self-efficacy Scale. It Includes an Adapted Self-efficacy Scale From Chronic Disease Literature Focused on Confidence in Managing Self-care Needs Plus Project-specific Items for Assessment of Confidence Regarding Integration Into Community Life.
The General Self-Efficacy scale (6 items) developed at Stanford University for persons with chronic health conditions was adapted for persons with spinal cord injury. Added to this scale were 5 similarly constructed project-specific self-efficacy items focused on community navigation and accessibility (major focus of peer support program). Respondents (via telephone interview) provided a response to each of 11 items using a 10-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (not confident) to 10 (very confident). Item response scores were averaged for the total self-efficacy score. Total scores ranged from 11 to 110 (11 items with 10 response options). Higher scores indicate greater self-efficacy to manage injury conditions. Growth Curve Analysis was used to determined significant changes over time in self-efficacy. Initial status coefficients depict where participants begin at the first time point (3 days post discharge) and growth rate coefficients show how participants change over time.

Effects of Peer Mentoring on Self-Efficacy and Hospital Readmission After Inpatient Rehabilitation of Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Control group received requested peer support services; may have contributed to the relatively modest effect size. We cannot claim use of validated measure of self-efficacy; we adapted a measurement validated in other populations and added items.
