This study compares the mental health of Colombians with spinal cord injuries (SCI) to that of age- and sex-matched able-bodied controls in Neiva. Using four mental health measures, including the Life Satisfaction Scale and the PHQ-9 for depression, our findings reveal that individuals with SCI reported significantly lower levels of life satisfaction and higher depressive symptoms compared to controls. This highlights the need for mental health considerations in SCI rehabilitation, particularly in Latin America, where research in this area is limited.

  1. Comparison of mental health between individuals with spinal cord injury and able-bodied controls in Neiva, Colombia Leia A. Harper, BS; Jennifer A. Coleman, MA; Paul B. Perrin, PhD; Silvia Leonor Olivera, MS; Jose Libardo Perdomo, BS; Jose Anselmo Arango, BS; Juan Carlos Arango-Lasprilla, PhD

  2. Aim • Compare mental health of individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) and nondisabled controls in Neiva, Colombia, South America. • Relevance • Overwhelming majority of research on mental health and SCI has been conducted in United States, Western Europe, and other developed countries.

  3. Method • Subjects (40 Colombians with SCI and 42 nondisabled age- and sex-matched controls) completed 4 measures of mental health: • Satisfaction with life (Satisfaction with Life Scale). • Depressive symptoms (Patient Health Questionnaire-9). • Self-esteem (Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale). • Anxiety (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory).

  4. Results • Compared with nondisabled controls, individuals with SCI reported significantly lower mental health on depression (medium effect size) and satisfaction with life (large effect size) measures. • Groups did not differ significantly on self-esteem or anxiety measures.

  5. Conclusion • Mental health of individuals with SCI should be central part of SCI rehabilitation interventions, particularly in Latin America.
