Summary

This study looks at whether training physical and occupational therapists in a counseling method called motivational interviewing helps people with spinal cord injury or disorder participate more actively in their rehab sessions. About 180 patients will have their therapy sessions recorded, and half of the therapists will receive special training. Researchers will compare participation levels and long-term outcomes between the two groups.
