The study included 102 people with SCI from Spinal Injury Rehabilitation Center and communities in Nepal. Data was collected using Socio-demographic Questionnaire (SDQ), Sense of Well-being Inventory (SWBI), Moorong Self-efficacy Scale (MSES), and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support-Nepali (MSPSS-N). Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The majority of the participants were male, Hindu, married, unemployed, paraplegic level of injury, having incomplete injury, and earthquake-induced SCI. Almost 53% of the participants had low level of subjective well-being. Subjective well-being score was significantly low in the participants who were younger, widowed or separated, unemployed, illiterate, quadriplegic, and living in the community. Pearson‟s correlation revealed a significant positive association between self efficacy and subjective well-being. However, a non-significant association was found between social support and subjective well-being. In the standard multiple regression analysis self-efficacy and social support explained 36% of variance in subjective well being among participants. Nevertheless, only self-efficacy made significant contribution. Further, longitudinal and interventional studies regarding this issue are required to enhance the subjective well-being of people with SCI in Nepal.
