Physical attributes of recovery included fighting with illness, experiencing an injury, and pain. Mental attributes were achieving self-restoration, hopefulness, self-confidence, self-identity, the mean ing of life, and personal growth. Social attributes were self-determination, autonomy, support, social confidence, and active participation in social relationships. The antecedents and conse - quences of recovery were classified into physical, mental, and social dimensions. Model, borderline, and contrary cases were presented.
