We examined associations between the receipt of positive and negative health-related social control (i.e. influence) from a primary network member, affective and behavioural reactions (i.e. behaviour change) to social control, and psychosocial well-being in a cross-sectional study of 91 HIV+ men living with HIV (MLWH). Receiving positive control was associated with more self-care behaviours, more active coping efforts, and fewer depressive symptoms. In contrast, receiving negative control was associated with fewer self-care behaviours and more depressive symptoms. Negative affective reactions to control mediated the associations between positive and negative control and depressive symptoms, and between positive control and active coping efforts. Behaviour change only mediated the association between positive control and self-care behaviours. Post-hoc analyses further revealed that men who were not at risk for clinical depression engaged in more behaviour change as a result of receiving negative control. Social control that elicits behaviour change and does not arouse negative affect is effective in promoting better self-care behaviours and psychosocial well-being in MLWH.
