本研究侧重于一个更广泛的sanpad资助的减少艾滋病毒耻辱研究项目的一个方面。该研究不仅解决了艾滋病毒污名的持续负担,而且更具体地解决了艾滋病毒感染者(PLWH)参与医疗保健机会和艾滋病毒污名减少干预措施的低参与率。该研究测试了南非西北部城市和农村环境中PLWH的艾滋病毒污名经历的随时间变化,以及生活在他们附近的人(PLC)的艾滋病毒污名行为的随时间变化。在以社区为基础的减少艾滋病毒污名的综合干预之前和之后对这些方面进行了测量。采用定量单系统研究设计,包括1次前测和4次重复后测,有目的自愿抽样和滚雪球抽样。研究结果没有显示城市和农村环境之间的显著差异,但在干预后,PLWH的HIV污名化经历以及PLC的HIV污名化行为随时间的变化具有一定的意义。建议包括继续这项干预,遵循研究期间实施的相同指导方针。(c) 2015年作者。Elsevier B.V.代表约翰内斯堡大学提供出版服务。这是一篇基于CC BY-NC-ND许可的开放获取文章。
This study focuses on one aspect of a more extensive SANPAD-funded HIV stigma reduction research project. The study addresses not only the continuous burden of HIV stigma, but more specifically on the low rate of participation in healthcare opportunities and HIV stigma reduction interventions by people living with HIV (PLWH) This study tested both change-over-time in HIV stigma experiences of PLWH and change-over-time in the HIV stigmatisation behaviour of people living close to them (PLC) in an urban and rural setting in the North-West in South Africa. These aspects were measured before and after the comprehensive community-based HIV stigma reduction intervention. A quantitative single system research design, with a pre-test and four repetitive post-tests, and purposive voluntary and snowball sampling were used. Findings did not indicate significant differences between urban and rural settings, but demonstrated some significance in change-over-time in the HIV stigma experiences of PLWH as well as the HIV stigmatisation behaviour of PLC after the intervention. Recommendations include the continuation of this intervention, following the same guidelines that were implemented during the study. (c) 2015 The Authors.
