NCT03554733

Brief Summary

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the efficacy of a treatment to improve resilience to stress for individuals with SCI who are transitioning from inpatient rehabilitation to home. The overarching hypothesis is that individuals who participate in an intervention that presents positive psychotherapy topics in an interactive, structured, cognitive-behaviorally-based group intervention that stresses restructuring maladaptive thought processes and provides experiential opportunities to reinforce behavioral change will demonstrate increased self-efficacy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Moorong Self-Efficacy Scale (MSES)

    The MSES is a 16 item self-report measure of self-efficacy related to everyday life activities, designed specifically for persons with SCI. Individuals use a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (very uncertain) to 7 (very certain) to rate their ability to perform 16 everyday tasks, with higher scores representing greater perceived self-efficacy. A Total Score, ranging from 16 to 112 is calculated by summing all item responses. The MSES has been used in previous studies of SCI, and demonstrates excellent internal consistency (alpha = 0.91 - 0.93), high reliability, and good convergent, concurrent and divergent validity. Time to administer: 5 to 10 minutes.

    Baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 18 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Change in Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES)

    Baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 18 weeks

  • Change in Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS)

    Baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 18 weeks

  • Change in Participation Assessment with Recombined Tools - Objective (PART-O)

    Baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 18 weeks

  • Patient Health Questionnaire - 9 (PHQ-9)

    Baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 18 weeks

  • Change in General Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7)

    Baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 18 weeks
