The level and correlates of the life satisfaction of persons with spinal cord injury who are residing in the community were investigated. One hundred men and 40 women were chosen randomly from a cohort of 640 persons with spinal cord injury residing in a 13-county area in southeast Texas. The mean Life Satisfaction Index-A (LSIA-A) was lower than reported previously for persons in the general population. The LSIA-A was not correlated significantly with chronologic variables, the ASIA Total Motor Index Score, or a self-report version of the Functional Independence Measure. The LSIA-A was associated positively with self-assessed health, perceived control, and social support, as well as with the Social Integration, Occupation, and Mobility dimensions of the Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique. From the standpoint of an augmented version of the World Health Organization model of disablement, the life satisfaction of persons with spinal cord injury appears to be influenced, albeit indirectly, by selective aspects of their social role performance (handicap), but not by their degree of impairment or disability.
对居住在社区中的脊髓损伤患者的生活满意度水平及其相关因素进行了调查。从居住在得克萨斯州东南部13个县地区的640名脊髓损伤患者队列中随机选取了100名男性和40名女性。生活满意度指数A(LSIA-A)的平均值低于先前报道的普通人群。LSIA-A与年龄变量、美国脊髓损伤协会总运动指数评分或功能独立性测量的自我报告版本无显著相关性。LSIA-A与自我评估的健康状况、感知到的控制感、社会支持以及克雷格残疾评估与报告技术的社会融合、职业和活动维度呈正相关。从世界卫生组织残疾模型的扩展版本来看,脊髓损伤患者的生活满意度似乎受到其社会角色表现(残疾)的某些方面的影响,尽管是间接影响,而不是受其损伤或残疾程度的影响。
