Castan, Alex; Opisso, Eloy; Chamarro, Andrés; Ginis, Kathleen A. Martin; Saurí, Joan – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
No Spanish-language tool exists to assess physical activity in people with spinal cord injuries. This work aimed to provide a valid Spanish version of the Physical Activity Recall Assessment for People with Spinal Cord Injury (PARA-SCI). It was conducted in three phases. First, translation and cross-cultural adaptation. Second, a reliability…

McRae, Jackie; Hayton, Jennifer; Smith, Christina – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: National UK guidance makes recommendations for speech and language therapy staffing levels in critical care and rehabilitation settings. Traumatic spinal cord injury patients often require admission primarily to critical care services within a major trauma centre prior to transfer to a specialist spinal injury unit but may not receive…

Vang, Chia; Cuevas, Sergio; Graf, Noreen; Marini, Irmo – Rehabilitation Research, Policy, and Education, 2020
Purpose: To explore exercise experiences and beliefs related to barriers among individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods: Seventy-four participants were recruited from a hospital, an independent living center, and online support groups. The Exercise Experiences and Spinal Cord Injury (EESCI) instrument included three scales to assess…

Young People's Safety Beliefs after a Spinal Cord Injury Health Promotion and Awareness Presentation
Watling, David P.; Bishara, Jason D.; Zeeman, Heidi – Health Education Journal, 2018
Objective: Adolescence is presented as a vulnerable period for accidental injury, particularly spinal cord injury, given young people's propensity for risky behaviours. School-based health promotion initiatives provide opportunities for education about the risks associated with dangerous behaviours. In this study, we aimed to describe young…

Scharff, Lauren F. V.; Samuels, Michelle A. Butler – Teaching & Learning Inquiry, 2023
Academic institutions are now expected to engage in developing and assessing learning outcomes; however, responsibility outcomes, such as respect for human dignity (RFHD), can be particularly challenging. As part of our Biopsychology course and Sensation and Perception course over the past decade, we applied the scientist-educator model of…

Wilroy, Jereme; Knowlden, Adam – American Journal of Health Education, 2016
Background: Approximately 200,000 individuals have a spinal cord injury (SCI) and more than 12,000 new cases are diagnosed each year in the United States. Lowered physical functioning caused by SCI often leads to a sedentary lifestyle, increasing risk for chronic diseases, secondary medical conditions, and lower quality of life. Purpose: The aim…

Meade, Whitney W.; O'Brien, Jason – Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, 2018
In this case, a child with a spinal cord injury was denied access to an afterschool care program that her nondisabled siblings were allowed to attend because she did not meet "eligibility requirements." Specifically, the independent contractor who ran the program mandated that students be able to function in an environment with a student…

McIntyre, June; Gurayah, Thavanesi; Adonis, Nadé; Elliott, Leigh-Anne; Müller-Nedebock, Aninka; Sibeko, Zanele – Africa Education Review, 2019
The focus of research to date has been on barriers rather than facilitating factors to participation for wheelchair users at higher education institutions (HEIs). This article reports on a single case study that explored the facilitating factors which contributed to a young male student with a spinal cord injury's participation at a South African…

Keegan, John; Ditchman, Nicole; Dutta, Alo; Chiu, Chung-Yi; Muller, Veronica; Chan, Fong; Kundu, Madan – Rehabilitation Research, Policy, and Education, 2016
Purpose: To apply the constructs of social cognitive theory (SCT) and the theory of planned behavior (TPB) to understand the stages of change (SOC) for physical activities among individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI). Method: Ex post facto design using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). The participants were 144 individuals with SCI…
