Background and Aims: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious and devastating neurological disease. In these people social support, quality of life and self-efficacy as factors influencing mental health may have undergone some changes. The main objective of this study was to compaire the quality of life, self-efficacy, and social support between people with spinal cord injury and the general population of the city of Bam.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in the city of Bam. By convenience sampling people with SCI over 18 years of age were recruited from the spinal cord injury association and welfare organization. General people were selected from the place of residence of the SCI patients. Of the 145 people with spinal cord injury, only 103 signed a consent form to participate in the study, of which 3 did not meet the inclusion criteria. All participants completed three questionnaires including SF36, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE)-10. Descriptive statistics for demographic information was used and independent sample t-test and Pearson correlation coefficient were used to analyze the results.
Results: Participants included 100 spinal cord injury patients and 100 normal population. The results showed that SF36 and self-efficacy scale in the SCI group in comparison with the general population was significantly lower (p<0.001). There was no significant difference between SCI and general population in MSPSS and its subscales s. In addition, there was significant correlation between MSPSS, GSE, and SF36 in people with SCI showed that there was significant correlation between GSE and MSPSS (p< 0.001), between GSE and SF36 (P< 0.001), and between MSPSS and SF36 (p= 0.002), In General Population there was significant correlation between GSE and MSPSS (p= 0.01), and between GSE and SF36 (p<0.001), but there was no significant correlation between MSPSS and SF36 (p= 0.337).
Conclusion: Self-efficacy and quality of life of participants with SCI was significantly different from general population, but there was no significant difference between people with SCI and the general population in perceived social support which may relate to the cultural context in which participants live. Also, the significant correlation between social support and self-efficacy and social support and quality of life in people with spinal cord injury indicates the importance of social support in these patients. Also, the relationship between self-efficacy and quality of life highlights the importance of psychosocial interventions in this group.
