Aktiv komparator: SCI Education Control Group
The SCIEC condition is a 16-session, highly structured educational intervention that provides information on how SCI affects the body; methods for maximizing function, coping, and living with SCI; and staying healthy with SCI.
It also includes general guidelines for improving health behavior.
Each SCIEC session follows the same structure, beginning with a presentation of the objectives for the current session and a brief review of material from the previous session before introducing the session's topic and presenting information on one or two key problem areas.
SCIEC utilizes a traditional didactic model with information delivered by an expert SCI educator in a classroom or lecture setting.

Eksperimentel: Multi-family Group Treatment
The MFG Program uses a structured problem-solving and skills training program to provide participants with SCI and their caregivers with tools and information to improve coping and help family members to connect through positive behavioral exchanges.
MFG educators are health professionals with experience in management of SCI, such as physical therapists, recreational therapists, occupational therapists, and psychologists.
MFG will last for 16 sessions across 9 months.

Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Change in ability to take action to improve one's health from baseline to end of treatment
Tidsramme: 9 months
|
Ability to take action to improve one's health will be assessed with the Patient Activation Measure (PAM) and the 8-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-8).
The PAM will measure the degree of individual's knowledge, confidence, and skill to participate in self-management.
A higher degree of patient activation has been associated with better health outcomes for adults with chronic conditions.
The SF-8 will assess self-reported general health, physical functioning, role-limitations due to physical health problems, bodily pain, and vitality.

9 months
|
|
Change in emotion regulation and interpersonal skills from baseline to end of treatment
Tidsramme: 9 months
|
Emotion regulation and interpersonal skills will be assessed with the Anger Expression Scale (AXS), the Abbreviated Duke Social Support Index (ADSSI), and the Family Crisis Oriented Personal Evaluation Scales (F-COPES).
The AXS measures anger management including anger-in (suppression of angry feelings), anger-out (expression of anger towards property or people) and anger control (the frequency of attempts to control expressions of anger).
The ADSSI measures both subjective support and social network interactions.
The F-COPES assesses family-level coping including use of social/spiritual support, reframing negative events, and mobilizing the family to acquire/accept help.

Change in mental health and health behavior from baseline to end of treatment
Tidsramme: 9 months
|
Mental health and health behavior will be assessed for the presence and severity of depressive symptoms, substance use, and in caregivers, burden of care, as these may influence benefits derived from treatment.
The 10-item Center for Epidemiologic Study of Depression (CESD-10) will measure depressive symptoms, and the Addiction Severity Index-Lite (ASI-L) will evaluate alcohol and substance use and related problems.
The Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI) will evaluate caregiver burden in four areas: physical, social, emotional and time dependence burden.
