Simple randomization by a table of random numbers was used to assigned the participants in the experimental and control groups; In order to use the table of random numbers, it was first decided to read the numbers from the top of the table. The numbers 01-22 were selected for the experimental group and the numbers 23-44 were selected for the control group. Allocation concealment was also used to ensure that the randomization sequence was performed without knowing which patient received which treatment. In the implementation of the randomization process, the researcher who was involved in creating the randomization plan was different from the researcher who was involved in enrolling the participants. We tried to eliminate the bias that can be created by the awareness of the researcher who creating the random sequence, Blinding description: Because the participants in the control group also participated in several sessions about psychological consequences of spinal cord injury as a placebo, none of the participants in the experimental and control groups were aware of how the study groups were assigned. N/A آسیب نخاعی. Intervention 1: Intervention group: The participants of experimental group received 8 sessions of self-transcendence based intervention. The duration of each session was approximately 90 minutes. Intervention protocol was based on Frankl's existential theory and reed's self-transcendence theory. According to self-transcendence theories, a self-transcendent person seeks to understand the nature of the world, herself or himself values and meaning of life; he/she looks at life and relates with humans and the world in a transcendent manner. Therefore, in intervention sessions, concepts such as self-awareness, self-worth and spirituality were discussed; how to interact with others, hope in life, acceptance of problems, life events and death with a self-transcendence manner were taught. The sessions were conducted by one of the authors who had previously received necessary training in self-transcendence approach. Intervention 2: Control group: The control group was on the waiting list but received three placebo sessions including general descriptions of the characteristics of spinal cord injury.
