Summary

This study looks at whether training physical and occupational therapists in motivational interviewing (a supportive communication style) helps people with spinal cord injuries or disorders engage more actively in their rehab sessions. About 180 patients will take part across three hospitals. Researchers will compare participation and recovery between patients whose therapists received the training and those who did not.
