Abstract
This study used a cross-sectional design to examine overall quality of life (QOL) and specific age-related tasks (e.g., dating, paid employment) among young adults with traumatic-onset spinal cord injury separated into four groups based on age (ages 18-22 years, 23-27 years) and injury duration (1-2 years, 5 or more years). The groups did not differ on demographic and medical characteristics. Overall QOL was primarily determined by injury duration such that those with longer time since injury reported higher levels of QOL. Analysis of specific tasks showed a combination of injury duration, age, and interaction effects.
