Abstract
Purpose/objective: We lack critical information regarding promoting resilience in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Living according to one's values may increase resilience. The aims of this study were to: (a) determine whether the degree to which individuals with SCI are living according to their values is associated with resilience; (b) identify values endorsed as most important; and (c) examine whether the importance of these values differs significantly by high vs. low resilience.
Research design: Individuals with SCI (N = 202, Mage = 47.32) completed an online survey. Two linear regression analyses were performed to evaluate the extent to which domains of valued living (measured using the Valuing Questionnaire [VQ] and its subdomains, progress and obstruction, and the Valued Living Questionnaire [VLQ]) were associated with resilience. To explore whether resilience was associated with ratings of the perceived importance of specific types of values, we identified the top 10 most important values endorsed in the sample and performed independent sample t tests to analyze whether high (top quartile) versus low (bottom quartile) resilience groups differed on their importance ratings of specific types of values.
Results: Successful pursuit of values (VQ-progress) positively predicted resilience (B = 0.67, p < .001) while barriers in pursuit of values (VQ-obstruction) negatively predicted resilience (B = -0.16, p < .05). The VLQ score (living according to particular values) positively predicted resilience (B = 0.18, p < .001). Participants with high resilience levels rated the following values as significantly more important relative to those low in resilience: caring, respect, compassion, gratitude, responsibility, and contribution.
Conclusions: Individuals with SCI who are able to pursue their values with intention had higher levels of resilience. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
期刊介绍：
Rehabilitation Psychology is a quarterly peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles in furtherance of the mission of Division 22 (Rehabilitation Psychology) of the American Psychological Association and to advance the science and practice of rehabilitation psychology. Rehabilitation psychologists consider the entire network of biological, psychological, social, environmental, and political factors that affect the functioning of persons with disabilities or chronic illness. Given the breadth of rehabilitation psychology, the journal"s scope is broadly defined.
