&lt;p&gt;Recent efforts have focused on enhancing wellness in community living seniors using evidence-based health promotion programs. However, very few of these programs have been tested in individuals aging with long-term physical disabilities (LTPD), such as muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, post-polio syndrome or spinal cord injury. This presentation describes a new academic-community partnership to adapt and test a NCOA endorsed intervention (EnhanceWellness) in people aging with LTPD.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Objectives&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
		By the end of this presentation attendees will be able to describe EnhanceWellness, an NCOA endorsed community-based health promotion program for older adults.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
		By the end of this presentation attendees will understand the prevalence and impact of long-term physical disabilities, including spinal cord injury and muscular dystrophy, in older adults.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
		By the end of this presentation attendees will be able to describe necessary adaptations to make interventions originally designed for older adults applicable for those aging with long-term physical disability.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;
		By the end of this presentation attendees will have an appreciation for the challenges and opportunities present in integration of aging and physical disability service networks.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Outcomes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pilot data from our first participants (n=8), which will include standardized scales measuring quality of life, emotional well-being, physical and social health and overall satisfaction with the program. Discussion of the adaptation process, including lessons learned, identification of challenges, and ways to remediate the inter-institutional and cultural barriers that exist between disability researchers and community agencies providing services to older adult&lt;/p&gt;

Method: A self-report survey including the FSS, MFIS, demographic, and other health measures was completed by 1271 individuals with MS. Analyses evaluated the reliability and validity of the scales, assessed their dimensional structures, and estimated levels of floor and ceiling effects. Item response theory (IRT) was used to evaluate the precision of the MFIS and FSS at different levels of fatigue. Results: Participants had a mean score on the FSS of 5.1 and of 44.2 on the MFIS. Cronbach&amp;#39;s alpha values for FSS and MFIS were all 0.93 or greater. Known-groups and discriminant validity of MFIS and FSS scores were supported by the analyses. The MFIS had low floor and ceiling effects, and the FSS had low floor and moderate ceiling effects. Unidimensionality was supported for both scales. IRT analyses indicate that the FSS is less precise in measuring both low and high levels of fatigue, compared with the MFIS. Conclusions: Researchers and clinicians interested in measuring physical aspects of fatigue in samples whose fatigue ranges from mild to moderate can choose either instrument. For those interested in measuring both physical and cognitive aspects of fatigue, and whose sample is expected to have higher levels of fatigue, the MFIS is a better choice even though it is longer. IRT analyses suggest that both scales could be shortened without a significant loss of precision. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved).&lt;/p&gt;

DESIGN: A cross-sectional national survey of 612 community-dwelling adults with spinal cord injury in the United States ranging from 18 to 89 yrs of age was conducted. Sample consisted of 63.1% men with a mean (SD) duration of 15.8 (12.79) yrs postinjury; 86.3% reported using a wheelchair. RESULTS: Self-efficacy was the only independent variable that consistently predicted all four exercise outcomes. Self-efficacy beliefs were significantly related to frequency and intensity of resistance training (R(2) change = 0.08 and 0.03, respectively; P &amp;lt; 0.01 for all) and aerobic training (R(2) change = 0.07 and 0.05, respectively; P &amp;lt; 0.01 for all), thus explaining between 3% and 8% of the variance. Hierarchical linear regression analysis revealed that controlling for other demographic and physical capability variables, the age-related variables made statistically significant contributions and explained between 1% and 3% of the variance in aerobic exercise frequency and intensity (R(2) change = 0.01 and 0.03, respectively; P &amp;lt; 0.01 for all). Clinical functional characteristics but not demographic variables explained participation in resistance exercise. CONCLUSIONS: Self-efficacy beliefs play an important role as predictors of exercise. Variations in exercise intensity along the age continuum have implications for exercise prescription and composition. Future research should replicate findings with objective activity measures.&lt;/p&gt;

Although the effects of population aging have been well documented for decades, the impact of aging on people with spinal cord injury (SCI) has not received similar attention. It is reasonable to expect that population aging features such as the increasing mean age of the population, share of the population in the oldest age groups, and life expectancy would be reflected in SCI population demographics. Although the mean age and share of the SCI population older than 65 yrs are increasing, data from the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center suggest that life expectancy increases in the SCI population have not kept the same pace as those without SCI in the last 15 yrs. The reasons for this disparity are likely multifactorial and include the changing demographics of the SCI population with more older people being injured; susceptibility of people with SCI to numerous medical conditions that impart a health hazard; risky behaviors leading to a disproportionate percentage of deaths as a result of preventable causes, including septicemia; changes in the delivery of health services during the first year after injury when the greatest resources are available; and other unknown factors. The purposes of this paper are (1) to define and differentiate general population aging and aging in people with SCI, (2) to briefly present the state of the science on health conditions in those aging with SCI, and finally, (3) to present recommendations for future research in the area of aging with SCI.&lt;/p&gt;
