Kennedy et al.16 conducted a cross-sectional study
examining the subtle relationships between dierent
coping strategies as in¯uences on emotional adjust-
ment. Kennedy et al.16 aimed to contribute further to
coping research by isolating coping strategies respon-
sible for variance in outcome adjustment in a
population of 41 individuals with SCI. This study
involved two groups with SCI, those 6 week post
injury and a second group included those 4 ± 7 years
post injury. Participants completed a variety of
measures assessing the psychological impact of SCI,
eectiveness of social support, and coping strategies.
Investigation into coping strategies indicated that
those strategies used most frequently, eg acceptance,
could be categorised according to Carver et al.38 as
being adaptive. Strategies considered to be maladap-
tive, eg drug and alcohol use, were used the least in
both groups of participants. A high level of active
coping was also present in this study. The authors
state that this may re¯ect a variety of controllable
aspects involved in living with a SCI. For example,
participants could control much of their self-care
routines, leisure time, social and occupational alter-
natives. Step wise multiple regression analysis on the
combined data of both groups indicated that coping
strategies and group membership (length of time
injured) were more predictive of psychological impact
than marital satisfaction and functional independence.
Individuals who had been injured for a number of
years were found to be signi®cantly more functionally
independent and had signi®cantly fewer social sup-
ports. Very few dierences were found in coping
strategies between the two groups. Dierences that
were evident was a higher use of focusing on and
venting of emotions and behavioural disengagement
in the long term group. In contrast the long term
group were less likely to seek emotional and
instrumental social support than the short term
group. These dierences may re¯ect actual variation
between coping in the two groups or may be an
artifact of the samples chosen. Individuals who have
been recently injured do need more help and are less
independent that individuals who have been living
with their disability for many years. Similarly, newly
injured individuals would be expected to have
signi®cant social supports over the original trauma
and this high level of support may decrease as
individuals adjust to the injury.
