abstract: 'Objective: To examine factors that differentiated persons with spinal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cord injury (SCI) who returned to work from those who did not,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Participants: Six employed persons with SCI matched with 6 unemployed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
persons with SCI on the basis of education, race, age, gender, time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
since injury, and level of function. Study Design: Semi-structured
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interviews 1 to 2 hr in length were completed and transcribed. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
responses of the employed were compared with those of the unemployed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
using grounded theory. The theory is inductively derived from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
qualitative data. Results: Psychological and environmental factors were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the most salient factors affecting employment in this matched sample.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Key psychological factors associated with employment were optimism,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
self-esteem, achievement orientation, and role models. Key environmental
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors were monetary incentives, disincentives, access, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
accommodation. Conclusions: The development of increased optimism may
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
promote employment for persons with SCI. Employment barriers and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perception of these barriers as insurmountable need to be decreased.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Policies that promote return to work with former employers are likely to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
improve employment rates for persons with SCI. A more intensive job
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
exploration process using job shadowing of peers and positive peer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
models may also improve employment after SCI.'
