Brief summary

1. Were there differences in functional ability between ambulatory individuals with SCI who passed and failed the independent sit-to-stand (iSTS) task? 2. Did the ability of iSTS relate to ability of walking as determined using a type of AAD used? 3. What were factors associated with the ability of iSTS?

Detailed description

* To evaluate the proportion and compare functional abilities between subjects who passed and failed the independent sit-to-stand (iSTS) task. * To assess the relationship between ability of iSTS and types of AAD used. * To investigate factors associated with the ability of iSTS.
