ARAUJO, Catarina Isabel Reis Silva Garcia e Teles de. Impact of self-care modeling videos on people with spinal cord injury. []. , serIV, 9, pp.57-64. ISSN 0874-0283.  https://doi.org/10.12707/RIV15066.

Background: The amount of information provided by the new technologies has considerably changed how people search for information, leading to new triage needs. Objectives: To produce evidence on how modeling videos can influence self-care and rehabilitation training of patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) in terms of motor skills and immediate knowledge. Methodology: A quasi-experimental design was conducted to assess the impact of modeling videos on the motor skills and immediate knowledge acquisition. Results: Motor skills have highly improved among the participants of the intervention group with the use of 3 videos. Moderate improvements were found with the use of 1 of the videos, whereas a slight improvement was found with the use of another video. Immediate knowledge improvements were found for all of the techniques of the intervention group after comparison of both evaluation moments. Conclusion: Videos have proved to have a positive impact on the intervention group both in terms of improved motor skills and immediate knowledge gains.
