[email protected] (J.C. Arango-Lasprilla) Introduction/Background To explore the relationship between mental health and quality of life (QoL) in children with traumatic brain injury (TBI) from Guadalajara, Mexico three months after the injury. Material and Method Forty six children with mild to severe TBI from Guadalajara, Mexico completed measures of mental health (anxiety and depression) and QoL 3 months after TBI. Anxiety and depressive symptoms were measured with the Anxiety Scale for Children Revised (CMAS-R) and Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI). QoL was measured using the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL), which is composed by four subscales: physical, emotional, social and school functioning. For this analysis emotional functioning subscale was remove to avoid conflicts with mental health scales. The majority of the sample was men (67%) and the average age was 10.48 (SD = 2.7). Results Results: A canonical correlation analysis between the mental health variables and QoL variables revealed that the two sets of constructs were significantly related, r = .50 (24.8% overlapping variance), = .62, 2 (6) = 19.81, P < .005. The standardized canonical coefficients for the mental health variables showed that anxiety loaded most highly (−.687) followed by depression (−.499). The standardized canonical coefficients for the QoL variables showed that social functioning (.774) loaded above the cutoff of .40. This pattern of shared variance suggests that children with TBI who had high anxiety and depression also tended to have lower social QoL. Conclusion Intervention programs for children with TBI in Mexico should include techniques to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms which could improve children’ social quality of life.

The impact of environmental factors on activity and participations of persons with spinal cord injury in Korea B. Lee National Rehabilitation Center, Public Health and Rehabilitation, Kangbukgu, Republic of Korea E-mail address:
[email protected] Introduction/Background There is lack of data on the lived experiences of persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) which may lead to lack of proper health policy and service provision for optimal functioning in their everyday lives. To resolve this issue, International spinal cord injury (InSCI) survey was launched in 28 countries in 2017. In this study, we aim to describe the impact of environmental factors on the activity and participation in persons with SCI based on the InSCI survey conducted in Korea. Material and Method Korean version of InSCI survey questionnaire was used for data collection which consists of 125 items that cover relevant information on all aspects of lived experience according to the ICF categories. Community dwelling adults who have sustained traumatic or non-traumatic SCI were recruited using the databases of National Rehabilitation Center and Korean Spinal cord injury Association. For the data analysis, items on ‘environmental factors’ were grouped into three categories of ‘accessibility’, ‘service provision’, and ‘attitudes of others’ by using factor and reliability analysis. Items on activity and participation were grouped into four categories–‘coping issues’, ‘health management’, ‘physical activity’, and ‘transportation’ by using the same analysis. Multivariate regression was used for the analysis of the impact of the environmental factors on the four categories of activity and participation. Results A total of 892 out of 6047 eligible people participated in the survey through online and paper-pencil version questionnaires. Multivariate regression analysis showed that environmental categories (P < 0.05) except ‘attitudes of others’ (P = 0.755) had statistically significant impact on activity and participation of persons with SCI. Conclusion As the first community survey for persons with SCI in Korea, InSCI study may reveal many aspects of the lives of persons with SCI. It has shown that indeed accessibility and proper service provision is important in activity and participation of persons with SCI in Korea.
