Summary

This study follows 113 people who recently had a spinal cord injury to understand how feelings of injustice (like blaming others or feeling cheated) change over time and affect their mental health, pain, and quality of life. Researchers will interview some participants and use surveys to track these feelings during rehab and up to one year later. The goal is to use this information to design better support programs for people adjusting to life after a spinal cord injury.
