To explore the perceptions of people with spinal cord injury (SCI) regarding preferred messengers and methods for obtaining physical activity (PA) information.
Using a phenomenological approach and interviewing techniques, five focus groups discussed PA information delivery methods and messengers.
Sixteen community-dwelling adults with SCI (62.5% tetraplegia, 37.5% paraplegia; at least one-year postinjury) whose PA levels ranged from sedentary to regularly active.
Content analyses revealed that the preferred media for obtaining PA information were passive sources (e.g., Internet, DVDs, newsletters). The preferred messengers were peers and health service providers. There were diverse perspectives about the value and types of PA messages to share with people in the acute, rehabilitation, and postdischarge stages.
The methods and messengers identified in this study illustrate the need for interdisciplinary engagement among various program and health care providers to work together to effectively deliver PA information to all individuals with SCI. People will be receptive to different messages, from different channels, at different times.
探索脊髓损伤（SCI）患者对获取身体活动（PA）信息的首选信息传递者和方法的看法。
采用现象学方法和访谈技术，五个焦点小组讨论了 PA 信息传递方法和信息传递者。
16 名居住在社区的成年 SCI 患者（62.5%四肢瘫痪，37.5%截瘫；至少受伤后 1 年），其 PA 水平从久坐不动到经常活跃不等。
内容分析显示，获取 PA 信息的首选媒体是被动来源（如互联网、DVD、时事通讯）。首选的信息传递者是同伴和医疗服务提供者。对于在急性、康复和出院后阶段与人们分享 PA 信息的价值和类型，存在不同的观点。
本研究确定的方法和信息传递者说明了需要跨学科参与，以便不同的项目和医疗保健提供者共同努力，有效地向所有 SCI 患者传递 PA 信息。人们将愿意接受来自不同渠道、不同时间的不同信息。
