Cross-sectional study OBJECTIVES: Determine whether participating in peer mentorship is related to differences in reported use of coping strategies (acceptance of injury and fighting spirit) for adults with spinal cord injury.
Quebec, Canada METHODS: A static group comparison design was used to retrospectively compare mentees (n = 68) and non-mentees (n = 63) on their reported coping strategies. Moderation analyses examined differences on coping strategies, while controlling for years since injury (significant covariate).
A significant interaction was found between years since injury and peer mentorship for acceptance of injury and fighting spirit, where mentees living with their injury for longer (~30 years) reported more use of the acceptance of injury and fighting spirit coping strategies.
Peer mentorship programs could serve as a means for promoting positive coping strategies for adults with SCI. To better understand the role of peer mentorship, follow-up studies using more rigorous research methodologies such as cohort or randomized controlled trial study designs should be conducted.
横断面研究
确定参与同伴指导是否与脊髓损伤成人报告的应对策略（接受损伤和斗志）的差异有关。
加拿大魁北克省
采用静态组比较设计，回顾性比较接受指导者（n = 68）和未接受指导者（n = 63）报告的应对策略。调节分析在控制受伤年限（显著协变量）的同时，检验应对策略的差异。
在接受损伤和斗志方面，发现受伤年限与同伴指导之间存在显著交互作用，即受伤时间较长（约30年）的接受指导者报告更多地使用接受损伤和斗志的应对策略。
同伴指导项目可作为促进脊髓损伤成人积极应对策略的一种手段。为了更好地理解同伴指导的作用，应采用更严格的研究方法，如队列研究或随机对照试验研究设计进行后续研究。
