Summary

About 25-51% of adults with acquired spinal cord injury (SCI) have "AIS D" SCI, the lowest severity grade of neurologic injury. Veterans with AIS D SCI generally have better outcomes in mobility, community integration, and employment. However, counterintuitively, they are also at higher risk of poor subjective well-being (SWB) and related psychosocial outcomes. Preliminary evidence suggests that poorer SWB in this group is associated with distinctive, modifiable factors such as less intensity of acute rehabilitation services, limited development of instrumental and social support networks, and underdeveloped disability identity. A significant gap in the care of Veterans with AIS D SCI is that they are unlikely to receive rehabilitation that is responsive to their specific experiences and needs. The proposed study will develop a novel, self-management based program to help Veterans with AIS D SCI. This study is highly significant, as creation of the proposed program is expected to improve SWB and lifetime psychosocial functioning for Veterans with AIS D SCI.
