Abstract
Purpose/objective: We lack critical information regarding promoting resilience in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Living according to one's values may increase resilience. The aims of this study were to: (a) determine whether the degree to which individuals with SCI are living according to their values is associated with resilience; (b) identify values endorsed as most important; and (c) examine whether the importance of these values differs significantly by high vs. low resilience.
Research design: Individuals with SCI (N = 202, Mage = 47.32) completed an online survey. Two linear regression analyses were performed to evaluate the extent to which domains of valued living (measured using the Valuing Questionnaire [VQ] and its subdomains, progress and obstruction, and the Valued Living Questionnaire [VLQ]) were associated with resilience. To explore whether resilience was associated with ratings of the perceived importance of specific types of values, we identified the top 10 most important values endorsed in the sample and performed independent sample t tests to analyze whether high (top quartile) versus low (bottom quartile) resilience groups differed on their importance ratings of specific types of values.
Results: Successful pursuit of values (VQ-progress) positively predicted resilience (B = 0.67, p < .001) while barriers in pursuit of values (VQ-obstruction) negatively predicted resilience (B = -0.16, p < .05). The VLQ score (living according to particular values) positively predicted resilience (B = 0.18, p < .001). Participants with high resilience levels rated the following values as significantly more important relative to those low in resilience: caring, respect, compassion, gratitude, responsibility, and contribution.
Conclusions: Individuals with SCI who are able to pursue their values with intention had higher levels of resilience. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
