Note: Predictors and covariates imputed by multiple imputation, full case outcomes in this table. Results are weighted by propensity scores.

Model 1: adjusted for age, gender, lesion characteristics (para/tetraplegia, completeness of injury, years since injury), aetiology, social support, education, and income.

Model 2: Model 1 + financial hardship.
