积极情绪对心理和身体健康有独特的有益影响，独立于消极情绪的影响。明确针对积极影响的干预措施有望改善一些慢性疾病的健康结果。在这篇文章中，我们提出了试验数据的可接受性和可行性的在线干预，以增加积极的影响，在那些生活在共同患有人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）和抑郁症。参与者认为干预措施是可接受的和可行的。9名参与者中有6名完成了干预和随后的随访评估以及干预后电话。我们还提出了计划的干预效果对情绪的比较结果，这表明，积极的影响显着增加干预组。根据目前的研究结果，未来的研究应该继续为患有艾滋病毒和抑郁症的人制定积极的影响干预措施。
Positive affect has unique beneficial effects on psychological and physical health, independent of the effects of negative affect. Interventions that explicitly target positive affect show promise for improving health outcomes in a number of chronic illnesses. In this article, we present pilot data on theacceptability and feasibility of an online intervention to increase positive affect in those living with comorbid human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and depression. The intervention was rated both acceptable and feasible by participants. Six of nine participants completed the intervention and the subsequent follow-up assessment and a post-intervention phone call. We also present outcomes of planned comparisons of intervention effects on emotion, which indicate that positive affect increased significantly in the intervention group. Based upon results of the current study, future research should continue the development of positive affect interventions for people living with comorbid HIV and depression.
