Summary of statistical analysis plan.

Study objective Analysis plan
To compare the effect of the education manual, relative to usual care, on self-reported changes in ADLa from admission to 6 weeks postadmission, using the SCIM-SRb patient-rated measure Repeated-measures ANOVA and linear mixed models to assess differences between intervention and control groups using the ADL data
To compare the effect of the education manual, relative to usual care, on observed changes in ADL from admission to 6 weeks postadmission, using the SCIM-IIIc clinician-rated measure Repeated-measures ANOVA and linear mixed models to assess differences between intervention and control groups using the ADL data
To compare the effect of the education manual, relative to usual care, on religious practice using the Private Religiousness Practices Scale and the Organizational Religiousness Short-Form Repeated-measures ANOVA and linear mixed models to assess differences between intervention and control groups using the ADL data
