The purpose of this study was to validate the items of the Spinal Cord Injury– Quality of Life (SCI-QOL) assessment and improve how people use the SCI-QOL scores to describe different levels of social and emotional experiences among individuals living with a spinal cord injury (SCI).
The SCI-QOL assessment measures physical-medical, physical functioning, emotional and social health in people with SCI.
The goal was to develop a tool that health care professionals and individuals with SCI can use to more accurately assess what the impact is on an individual’s well-being and what their social and emotional outcomes are over time as a result of medical care, medications, or treatments received.
