Psychological Resources, Appraisals, and Coping and Their Relationship to Participation in Spinal Cord Injury: A Path Analysis

Associations of Proactive Coping and Self-Efficacy With Psychosocial Outcomes in Individuals After Stroke

“…33 Factors other than self-efficacy could have determined participation in individuals after stroke. For example, spinal cord injuries often result in visible physical impairments, such as reduced leg function.…”

The role of appraisal and coping style in relation with societal participation in fatigued patients with multiple sclerosis: a cross-sectional multiple mediator analysis

“…Several studies have shown that psychological factors affect the societal participation of patients with chronic diseases like rheumatic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, Alzheimer’s Disease, MS, and Spinal Cord Injury (Adler & Matthews, 1994; Cameron & Leventhal, 2003; Stanton et al, 2007; Stein & Baum, 2013). Psychological factors found to be related to societal participation include successful performance of adaptive tasks, adjustment to disability, maintenance of emotional balance, the absence of psychological disorders (Maes et al, 1996), coping styles (Demers et al, 2009; Kennedy et al, 2006; Levasseur & Couture, 2015; Lindwall et al, 2012; Peter et al, 2014), and appraisal (Barnwell & Kavanagh, 1997; Peter et al, 2014). …”

“…It is a comprehensive term in which successful performance of adaptive tasks, adjustment to disability and maintenance of emotional balance can be scaled. Detailed examination of the relationships between the psychological factors that are related to societal participation suggests that the relation between appraisal and societal participation is mediated by coping processes (Lowe et al, 2008; Middleton & Craig, 2008; Peter et al, 2014). Appraisal influences the coping strategies that are used by a person (Middleton & Craig, 2008; Peter et al, 2014).…”

Individuals actively and consciously select and engage in certain coping behaviors (Lazarus & Folkman, 1984; Parker & Endler, 1989).…”

Restrictions and satisfaction with participation in patients who are ADL-independent after an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

“…The level of participation restrictions described in patients one year after stroke, of whom more than three-fourths was functionally independent, was similar to our findings. 13 In a more broader context, our aSAH patients reported higher levels of participation than those described for patients with a spinal cord injury, 27 patients during inpatient rehabilitation recovering from acquired brain injury (stroke, TBI, tumor, post anoxic brain damage, neuroinflammatory disease) 28 , and rehabilitation outpatients (several medical conditions such as musculoskeletal, brain injury, heart condition, chronic pain). 12 This is most likely due to the fact that the patients in these three studies were more physical dependent as compared to our patients.…”
