SCI-QOL (Spinal Cord Injury Quality of Life Computer Adaptive Testing): An SCI Model System Study
This project will evaluate the validity, sensitivity, and responsiveness to change of the SCI-QOL measurement system. The sensitivity of the scales to detect change and the direction of change of key areas of functioning including activity limitations will be examined as well as secondary medical complications, emotional functioning, and social participation. These variables will be assessed at multiple points during the recovery process and injury “trajectories” of change will be developed from shortly after injury through the initial years of living with a disability.
