Perceived influence of intrinsic/extrinsic factors on participation in life activities after spinal cord injury.
Disability and Health Journal 2018 October
BACKGROUND: Various types of limitations on community participation are experienced by people with spinal cord injury (SCI).
OBJECTIVES: To determine: 1) the perceived influence of six intrinsic/extrinsic factors (i.e. physical impairment, emotional condition, thinking skills, environment, lack of assistance, discrimination) on participation in 26 life activities, 2) if this influence varied based on extent of participation, and 3) if personal or environmental characteristics influenced perceptions.
METHODS: Secondary analysis of a cohort (SCI Community Survey, n = 1508) using the SCI Person-Perceived Participation in Daily Activities Questionnaire. Frequency tables, Fisher's exact tests and correspondence analyses.
RESULTS: Respectively, 79.6% and 38.5% of respondents perceived that their physical impairment and the natural and/or built environment were the main factors that limited participation across all activities. Considering participation between three groups (no participation; less than wanted; as much as wanted), significant differences (p < 0.001) of perceptions were observed in 65% of the combinations (26 activities x 6 factors). The hypothesis that respondents who did not participate would perceive the highest proportion of limitations was confirmed in 41% of the combinations. Perceived influence of the intrinsic/extrinsic factors on participation was not significantly influenced by other personal or environmental characteristics.
CONCLUSION: A majority of people with SCI perceived that their participation is limited by one or more of intrinsic/extrinsic factors. Perceptions regarding which factors influence participation differ between activities and these perceptions appear related to the extent of participation suggesting that those who actively participate could be the most sensitive to limitations in certain activities.
