“…1,6,8 Indeed the present study found a similar incidence (58%) of at least moderate resilience in a community sample to that reported by inpatient samples with SCI. 1,6 These findings therefore suggest that psychological adaptation to SCI may prevail in the longer term, despite the challenges associated with community living.…”

“…Further large-scale research would allow more advanced analyses, such as structural equation modelling, to better estimate the causal relationship between these variables. 1 Finally, the reliance on self-report measures of psychological outcome, which are considered to be subjective, presented a testing bias. 14 Future SCI research should therefore incorporate clinicianbased ratings, consistent with recommendations for clinical trials.…”

“…It is also possible that individuals with higher degrees of resilience were more likely to participate in the study compared with those with poor coping behaviours, such as amotivation and depression. 1,2,8 The reported 58% prevalence estimate of resilience, post-SCI, therefore needs to be interpreted cautiously due to the potentially biased sample.…”

“…[1][2][3] This includes the role of negative self-evaluations and coping behaviours in the adjustment process, 4 the impact of chronic neuropathic pain on psychological outcome 4,5 and gender differences in rates of depression post-SCI. 3 Although researchers have made important contributions towards identifying negative outcomes for individuals with SCI using the deficit-based paradigm, 2 it has not assisted researchers in finding ways to prevent psychological problems from developing.…”

“…8 Broadly speaking, resilience refers to the personal qualities that enable individuals to positively adjust in the face of a significant adversity, such as a SCI. 1,8 Researching resilience is important because it enables practitioners to understand why and how up to 54% of individuals with SCI report a life trajectory characterised by relatively stable and healthy levels of psychological and social functioning. [6][7][8] Moreover, the literature emphasises that the personal thoughts and behaviours that contribute to resilience are modifiable and can be improved with psychological treatment.…”

Examining factors that contribute to the process of resilience following spinal cord injury

Study design: Cross-sectional survey. Objective: To examine factors that contribute to the process of positive adjustment, or resilience, in an adult community sample with spinal cord injury (SCI). Setting: South Australian Spinal Cord Injury Service, Hampstead Rehabilitation Centre, South Australia, Australia Methods: A postal survey comprising standardised measures of resilience (Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-10 item), self-efficacy (Moorong Self-Efficacy Scale), locus of control (Locus of Control of Behaviour Scale) and psychological distress (Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 item). Results: Of 60 respondents, 58% reported moderate to high levels of resilience. Resilience correlated significantly with high selfefficacy (r ¼ 0.68, Po0.01), internal locus of control (r ¼ À0.52, Po0.01) and low psychological distress (depression r ¼ À0.68, Po0.01; anxiety r ¼ À0.55, Po0.01; stress r ¼ À0.67, Po0.01). In comparison, resilience was not significantly influenced by degree of neuropathic pain (r ¼ À0.23, P40.05), time since injury (r ¼ À0.14, P40.05), gender (t (58) ¼ À0.92, P40.05), lesion completeness (t (57) ¼ À0.86, P40.05), or SCI diagnosis (t (58) ¼ À1.21, P40.05). A multiple regression indicated that psychological distress and self-efficacy were the only two variables that uniquely contributed to resilient behaviour. Conclusion: Resilience is an important psychological process in the longer-term management of SCI which can be promoted by targeting rehabilitation interventions towards mood management in addition to self efficacy beliefs. Larger-scale research will help to validate these results.

The current study explored the influences of social stress and resilience on the relation between psychopathy-linked personality characteristics (i.e., narcissism, dimensions of CU traits) and aggression with the expectation that social stress would exacerbate the relation, whereas resilience would mitigate it. In a sample of 154 at-risk adolescents (ages 16-18; 84% male), contrary to expectations, high social stress attenuated the relations of narcissism and callousness with aggression. Self-reported resilience attenuated the relation between callousness and aggression. The implications for understanding the role that these moderators might play in the association between adolescent psychopathic tendencies, particularly callousness, and aggression are discussed.

Background and Aims As a debilitating disorder, spinal cord injuries (SCIs) can bring about a range of physical, psychological, and social consequences in individuals and even have effects on their lifestyle indicators. The present study was thus to reflect on lifestyles among people with SCIs developing from accidents and disasters. Methods Using a meta‐synthesis of qualitative research, all articles recruiting qualitative methods to examine patients with SCIs, published from 1990 to 2020, were retrieved by the researchers, good at the Persian and English languages, from the databases of ScienceDirect, MD Consult, Pedro, ProQuest, PubMed, SID, MedLib, Magiran, Scopus, Google Scholar, Iranmedex, the Cochran Library, CINAHL, and Blackwell, tapping the keywords of “spinal cord injury, SCI, manmade disaster, natural disaster, content analysis, concept analysis, thematic analysis, lifestyle, quality of life, QoL, grounded theory, meta‐synthesis, mixed‐methods research, historical research, ethnography, and phenomenology” in both languages for their inclusion in this study and further analyses. Results With reference to the inclusion criteria, 18 articles were extracted, and after all 10 studies in line with the research topic were reviewed and analyzed. Ultimately, six main themes, namely, compromise, self‐reliance, income‐generating activities, mental status, inability, and issues of sexuality were extracted, demonstrating their importance to individuals suffering from SCIs. Conclusion During the initial stages following SCIs, the abilities to engage in participatory practices and individual's power of decision‐making diminish because of physical, social, psychological, and environmental constraints. It was accordingly recommended to have a holistic perspective and respect all aspects of life in individuals with SCIs.

The buffering effect of resilience on depression among individuals with spinal cord injury: A structural equation model.

Abstract: Findings provide support for the resilience model and suggests characteristics of resilience "buffer" the perceptions of stress on depressive symptoms. The resilience model may be useful to guide clinical interventions designed to improve the mental health of individuals with SCI.
