“…9 Both recognize the negative effect of barriers (ie architectural) in health promotion. We describe community health care and its importance in health promotion whereas the explanatory model of health promotion and quality of life talks more broadly about resources including social support, environmental and tangible resources.…”

“…29 The development or enhancement of self efficacy, or the confidence with which a person is able to carry out a task, is a central part of self management. 29 Self efficacy is also a concept central to the explanatory model of health promotion 9 and is incorporated into transtheoretical model of behaviour change. 30 We know that self efficacy is an important predictor of health promoting behaviours in people with disabilities.…”

“…Stuifbergen et al 8 present an explanatory model of health promotion and quality of life developed primarily with people with multiple sclerosis but more recently applied to people with post polio syndrome. 9 The model describes antecedent factors that impact health promoting behaviours and ultimately quality of life. Antecedent factors include the severity of the illness, barriers to change in health behaviour (such as architectural barriers), resources, and self efficacy.…”

“…In all, 58% of the variance in health promoting behaviours was explained by knowledge of antecedent factors. 9 The transtheoretical model of health behaviour change 10 describes five stages of behaviour change including: (1) precontemplation; (2) contemplation; (3) preparation; (4) action; and (5) maintenance 11 and has recently been applied in populations with physical disability. 12,13 Recognition of the stage of change a person is in with regard to a certain health behaviour, allows the intervention to be tailored to the individual's needs.…”

Study design: Qualitative design using focus groups. Objective: To explore the perceptions of people with SCI and their caregivers about information needs and service delivery options that may assist them to maintain or improve their long-term health. Setting: Province wide project in Alberta, Canada. Methods: Eight focus groups were conducted; five with community dwelling people with SCI and three with unpaid caregivers (family and friends). Content analysis was used to identify categories and themes arising from the data. Results: The findings from the study are broader than the original objective to explore information needs and service delivery options to promote long-term health. The participants more globally discussed factors that contribute to or provide barriers to their long-term health. Those factors are captured in five categories, including readiness, information pathways, community health care, health promotion, and contextual factors. A framework that illustrates the relationships between categories was constructed. Conclusion: The framework identifies areas to target in programmes designed to reduce or prevent secondary conditions in people with SCI.

“…También se encuentran otro tipo de estudios que abordan condiciones de salud específicas que generan limitaciones en la funcionalidad física, tales como lupus eritematoso sistémico (Vinaccia et al, 2006b), artritis reumatoide (Kojima et al, 2009), secuelas de postpolio (Stuifbergen et al, 2005) y discapacidades específicas como amputaciones de miembro superior o inferior por causas adquiridas (Desmond & MacLachlan, 2006). Adicionalmente, se han hecho trabajos orientados hacia la calidad de vida de familias que tienen hijos con discapacidad, teniendo en cuenta que las limitaciones y las restricciones que presentan las personas con discapacidad generan una carga en la familia, dado el apoyo que deben brindar en los cuidados y las actividades de la vida diaria (Ballesteros et al, 2006;Córdoba et al, 2008).…”

ResumenEl presente estudio correlacional descriptivo se propuso evaluar los factores que determinan la calidad de vida (CV) relacionada con la salud en 78 personas con discapacidad física que vivían en Bogotá, y hacían parte de un proyecto de inclusión laboral dirigido por una ONG. Se evaluó la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (Cuestionario de Salud SF36 y visita domiciliaria), al igual que las condiciones asociadas a la discapacidad y algunos factores psicológicos (Escala de Autoeficacia Generalizada, Prueba de Imagen Corporal, Inventario de Estilos de Afrontamiento, Prueba de optimismo disposicional, Inventario de Depresión de Beck y Escala de Ansiedad de Zung). Se utilizó un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales para encontrar el poder predictivo de las variables en la calidad de vida. El modelo obtenido predecía un 39% de la varianza, incluyendo en orden de peso relativo aportando variables como condiciones de enfermedad, depresión, afrontamiento centrado en la fantasía, trascendencia, pesimismo, ansiedad y autoeficacia. Se discuten los hallazgos y las limitaciones del estudio. Palabras clave: calidad de vida, discapacidad física, factores psicológicos PSYCHOSOCIAL PREDICTORS OF QUALITY OF LIFE IN PEOPLE EXPERIENCING PHYSICAL DISABILITY AbstractThis descriptive correlational study aimed to assess the factors that determine the quality of life related to health in 78 people with physical disabilities who lived in Bogotá and were part of a labor inclusion project run by a NGO. Quality of life related to health was assessed with the SF36 Health Questionnaire and a home visit, as well as the conditions associated with disability and some psychological factors which were measured with the Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, Body Image Test, Coping Styles Inventory, Dispositional Optimism Test, Beck Depression Inventory and Zung Anxiety Scale. A structural equation model was used in order to determine the predictive power of the quality of life variables. The obtained model predicted 39% of the variance, including the variables' relative weight order, and provided variables as disease condition, depression, coping style focused on fantasy, transcendence, pessimism, anxiety and self-efficacy. Findings and limitations of the study are discussed. Key Words: Quality of life, physical disability, psychological factors.

Persons living with the effects of polio are often at increased risk for the development of secondary conditions and disabilities that can lead to further decline in health status, independence, functional status, life satisfaction, and overall quality of life. The purpose of this study was to explore the frequency of selected secondary conditions, factors associated with these conditions, and the relationship between secondary conditions and quality of life among polio survivors. Data from a large convenience sample (N = 2,153) indicate that secondary conditions are prevalent and associated with decreased life satisfaction. Prompt identification and treatment of secondary conditions before they progress to greater impairment and/or disability and attention to an overall healthful lifestyle is important to preserve function and maintain quality of life of polio survivors.
