DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Puerto Rico is a US territory with an alarming number of HIV/AIDS cases. There are more than 32,000 reported cases in the Island. In this scenario, nurses are in an advantageous position to provide education and treatment to people with HIV/AIDS (PWHA). In Puerto Rico there are more than 26,000 professionals nurses, representing one of the largest numbers of health professionals in the Island. However, NIH funded research suggests that manifestation of HIV/AIDS stigma among health professionals continues to be a significant barrier to effective prevention and service delivery. Furthermore, recent publications have documented how religion can foster the process of stigmatization among health professionals. Religion in Puerto Rico is a highly valued socio-cultural phenomenon. Thus, it is crucial to understand the manifestations of HIV/AIDS stigma among nurses embedded in highly religious context. This will be the first study in Puerto Rico to address the role of religion on HIV/AIDS stigma manifestation among professional nurses. The proposed study has three aims: (1) Explore the perceived role of personal religious beliefs on health services delivery behaviors among professional nurses in Puerto Rico. (2) Document manifestations of HIV/AIDS stigma among professional nurses in Puerto Rico. (3) Examine the role of professional nurses' religious personal beliefs in the manifestation of stigmatizing narratives towards PWHA. In order to achieve the aim 1, the PI will conduct in-depth interviews with professionals' nurses (N=40). The sample will be subdivided through two main criteria: 1) religious identification and 2) gender. Therefore, the final sample will be composed of female nurses that self-identify as religious (n=10), female nurses that do not self-identify as religious (n=10), male nurses that self-identify as religious (n=10), and male nurses that do not self-identify as religious (n=10). The proposed design will allow us to achieve our specific aims while documenting potential variability in the reported narratives due to personal religious beliefs, religious involvement, and direct service experience with PWHA. We have been unable to find published studies that explore how religious beliefs among Puerto Rican professional nurses can foster manifestations of HIV/AIDS stigma. These concerns drive this research proposal.

描述（由申请人提供）：波多黎各是美国领土，艾滋病毒/艾滋病病例数量惊人。岛上报告的病例超过32 000例。在这种情况下，护士处于有利地位，为艾滋病毒/艾滋病患者提供教育和治疗。在波多黎各，有26 000多名专业护士，是岛上卫生专业人员人数最多的国家之一。然而，美国国立卫生研究院资助的研究表明，卫生专业人员对艾滋病毒/艾滋病的耻辱感仍然是有效预防和提供服务的一个重大障碍。此外，最近的出版物记录了宗教如何助长保健专业人员的污名化进程。宗教在波多黎各是一种受到高度重视的社会文化现象。因此，它是至关重要的，以了解艾滋病毒/艾滋病的耻辱护士嵌入在高度宗教背景下的表现形式。这将是在波多黎各进行的第一项研究，探讨宗教在专业护士艾滋病毒/艾滋病污名表现中的作用。本研究的目的有三：（1）探讨波多黎各专业护士个人宗教信仰对医疗服务提供行为的影响。(2)记录波多黎各专业护士对艾滋病毒/艾滋病污名化的表现。(3)检查专业护士的宗教个人信仰的作用，对PWHA的污名化叙事的表现。 为了实现目标1，PI将与专业护士（N=40）进行深入访谈。样本将通过两个主要标准进行细分：1）宗教身份和2）性别。因此，最终的样本将由自认为是宗教信仰的女护士（n=10）、不自认为是宗教信仰的女护士（n=10） （n=10），男护士自我认同为宗教（n=10），和男护士不自我认同为宗教（n=10）。拟议的设计将使我们能够实现我们的具体目标，同时记录由于个人宗教信仰，宗教参与和PWHA的直接服务经验而报告的叙述中的潜在变化。我们无法找到已发表的研究报告，探讨波多黎各专业护士的宗教信仰如何助长艾滋病毒/艾滋病污名化的表现。这些问题推动了这项研究计划。
