In this article we present background, theoretical rationale, and pilot data on the development of an intervention designed to increase positive affect in people living with serious health-related stress. This proof-of-concept study demonstrated that a multiple-component positive affect intervention is feasible and acceptable for people newly diagnosed with HIV. Retention in the intervention and adherence to home practice were high. Participants reported significant increases in positive affect and significant decreases in negative affect. This positive affect intervention can serve as a template for programs to be developed to help people experiencing health-related and other types of life stress.
本文介绍了一项旨在增加患有严重与健康相关压力人群积极情绪的干预措施的背景、理论基础和初步数据。这项概念验证研究表明,对于新诊断出 HIV 的人群,多成分积极情绪干预是可行且可接受的。参与者对干预措施的保留率和家庭实践的依从性都很高。参与者报告积极情绪显著增加,消极情绪显著减少。这种积极情绪干预可以作为开发帮助人们应对与健康相关和其他类型生活压力的项目的模板。
