Re-Inventing Yourself After SCI: A Site-Specific Randomized Clinical Trial
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a replicable, psychologically-based group education intervention, Re-Inventing Yourself after Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), which aims to enhance personal self-efficacy.
A structured six-week, manualized, group therapy intervention that delivers positive psychology concepts within a cognitive-behavioral therapy-based model has been created for the purpose of developing a resilient and optimistic sense of efficacy for people with SCI.
Concepts covered within this intervention include: reframing and restructuring a person's method of looking at events, building confidence by focusing on personal strengths, developing methods of recognizing and appreciating the good in one's life and expressing gratitude for positive attributes.
The goals of this intervention are to increase personal self-efficacy, enhance emotional well-being and improve participation in society for people with SCI living in the community.
The investigators hypothesize that persons receiving the intervention will demonstrate improved SCI-specific and overall self-efficacy as compared to waitlist controls.

Experimental: SCI Reinvention Protocol Participants
This group will receive 6 instructor-led 2 hour long didactic presentations regarding 8 key principles of self-efficacy and experiential exercises, including goal setting and problem solving with extensive group discussion.
At the end of each session, tasks are assigned to participants to be completed outside the group during the week between sessions.
Experiences from these activities and practice implementing the intervention principles will be shared and discussed each week, providing additional opportunities for problem solving and positive feedback.
|
The intervention involves participation in a six week psychologically-based educational intervention.
During the course, 8 specific skills are reviewed in order to specifically address reframing a person's method of looking at events, build confidence by focusing on personal strengths, develop methods of recognizing and appreciating the good in one's life and express gratitude for positive attributes.
These skills are presented in a specific sequence so that participants can gain mastery of introductory concepts before undertaking those that are both more difficult and complex.

Otro: Waitlist Group
This group will include individuals randomized to receive no treatment for the 30 weeks during which the interventional group will receive the active treatment and have their progress tracked.
