March 12, 2022,ÌýTIE lab PhD student Tayah Liska published the research on the Journal of Spinal Cord Medicine. The title of the publication is "".

The purpose of this study was to examine possible impacts of two theory-based interventions, Enhancing quality of life through exercise: A tele-rehabilitation approach (TEQ), and Active Living Lifestyles for individuals with SCI who use Wheelchair (ALLWheel), 12–18 months post-intervention on satisfaction of psychological needs and motivation for leisure-time physical activity, leisure time physical activity participation, and participants overall experience. Sixteen participants from TEQ and ALLWheel completed questionnaires and engaged in one-on-one semi-structured interviews. A large to medium effect size was found for autonomous motivation, competence, and barrier self-efficacy. Leisure time physical activity remained higher for TEQ participants at follow-up, while ALLWheel participants reported an increase in moderate-to-vigorous leisure time physical activity. The results of this study suggest that community-based tele-rehabilitation and virtual rehabilitation approaches, informed by theory, may support adults with SCI in implementing leisure time physical activity over the long term.

Congratulations to Tayah and TIE lab!
