This study aimed to: (1) develop a coding manual to characterize topics discussed and conversation techniques used during peer mentorship conversations between people with spinal cord injury (SCI); (2) assess the reliability of the manual; and (3) apply the manual to characterize conversations.
MATERIALS/METHODS: The study was conducted in partnership with three Canadian provincial SCI organizations. Twenty-five phone conversations between SCI peer mentors and mentees were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Ten transcripts were inductively analyzed to develop a coding manual identifying topics and techniques used during the conversations. Inductive technique codes were combined and deductively linked to motivational interviewing and behaviour change techniques. Two coders independently applied the coding manual to all transcripts. Code frequencies were calculated.
The coding manual included 14 topics and 31 techniques. The most frequently coded topics were , , and for mentors and mentees. The most frequently coded techniques were , and for mentors; and , , and for mentees.
This research provides insights into topics and techniques used during real-world peer mentorship conversations. Findings may be valuable for understanding and improving SCI peer mentorship programs.Implications for RehabilitationSCI peer mentorship conversations address a wide range of rehabilitation topics ranging from acute care to living in the community.Identification of the topics discussed, and techniques used in SCI peer mentorship conversations can help to inform formalized efforts to train and educate acute and community-based rehabilitation professionals.Identifying commonly discussed topics in SCI peer mentorship conversation may help to ensure that peer mentors are equipped with the necessary knowledge and resources, or the development of those resources be prioritized.Developing a method to characterize the topics discussed and techniques used during SCI peer mentorship conversations may aid in designing methods to evaluate how rehabilitation professionals provide support to people with SCI.
本研究旨在：(1)制定一个编码手册，以描述脊髓损伤（SCI）患者之间的同伴指导对话中讨论的主题和使用的对话技巧；(2)评估该手册的可靠性；(3)应用该手册对对话进行特征描述。
材料/方法：该研究是与三个加拿大省级 SCI 组织合作进行的。25 次 SCI 同伴导师和学员之间的电话对话被录音并逐字转录。对 10 份转录本进行了归纳分析，以制定一个编码手册，识别对话中使用的主题和技巧。归纳技术代码被合并，并演绎链接到动机访谈和行为改变技术。两位编码员独立地将编码手册应用于所有转录本。计算了代码频率。
编码手册包括 14 个主题和 31 种技巧。导师和学员最常编码的主题是 、 、 。导师最常编码的技巧是 、 ；学员最常编码的技巧是 、 、 。
这项研究提供了有关现实世界同伴指导对话中使用的主题和技巧的见解。研究结果对于理解和改善 SCI 同伴指导计划可能具有价值。
SCI 同伴指导对话涉及从急性护理到社区生活的广泛康复主题。确定 SCI 同伴指导对话中讨论的主题和使用的技巧可以帮助为培训和教育急性和社区康复专业人员提供信息。
确定 SCI 同伴指导对话中常见讨论的主题可以帮助确保同伴导师具备必要的知识和资源，或者优先考虑这些资源的开发。
开发一种方法来描述 SCI 同伴指导对话中讨论的主题和使用的技巧，可以帮助设计评估康复专业人员如何为 SCI 患者提供支持的方法。
