摘要

This study is aimed to investigate the relationship between family social support and the level of stigma perceived by people living with HIV (PLWHA). The methodology is cross-sectional and the sample population includes 163 individuals (54% males, 46% females) who were randomly selected from the counseling centers for behavioral disorders of Medical Sciences of Tehran University. The average age of the sample was 37.48 +/- 10.29 years old and the main cause of HIV infection was the sexual intercourse with spouse/non-spouse. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant and inverse relationship between general social stigma with the duration of HIV infection (r = -0.31, P < .05). There is also a positive and significant relationship between the general family social support and its subscales (information support, seeking support, instrumental support) with the duration of the infectious disease (r = +0.20, P < .05), which means that with increasing duration of the disease, the level of family social support increases. The general social stigma score with the general family social support showed a significant correlation (inverse) (r = -0.43, P < .05). It seems that the design and implementation of appropriate psychosocial interventions to increase family social support and reduce social stigma associated with HIV/AIDS are important in Iranian society and societies that are family-oriented and the family institution continues its protective and supportive functions.
