Primary | Perceived stigma in HIV+ patients | Perceived stigma in HIV+ patients will be assess through the following test: the 12-item short version of the HIV stigma scale. The test consists of four subscales: personalized stigma, concerns about disclosure of one's HIV status, concerns about the attitudes of others and negative self-image. | 1 year | |
Secondary | Influence of social support on perceived stigma | HIV+ patients' perceived social support will be examined through the use of 6 statements (1. "If you are sick, you have someone to rely on physically for example as help with household chores or as company during doctor's visits"; 2. "You have someone who can look after your home if you are away"; 3. "If you wanted to go on a trip, you would have someone to share the experience with"; 4. "You have someone who accepts you with your strengths and faults"; 4. "You have someone who loves you and gives you affection"; 6. "If you have emotional difficulties, you have someone who listens to you and gives you support and advice"). | 1 year | |
Secondary | Influence of mental health on perceived stigma | Mental health will be investigated using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS) 21, a self-assessment instrument containing 21 useful items to investigate three constructs: depression, anxiety and stress. Each construct constitutes a specific subscale, consisting of 7 items. Each item corresponds to a statement, referring to the past week. | 1 year | |
Secondary | Influence of quality of life on perceived stigma | Quality of life will be investigated using the 12-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12). The SF-12 investigates quality of life with 12 items: 6 items are concerned with physical health (physical functioning, physical plane limitations, physical pain, general health) and 6 items are concerned with mental health (emotional plane limitations, fatigue or lack of energy, social functioning, emotional well-being). | 1 year |
