Inmates face a disproportionate burden of HIV. This study sought to explore the relationship between social support and physical and mental well-being and the possibility that housing stability moderates this relationship among jail detainees living with HIV. Data for this cross-sectional analysis come from 438 clients who underwent a structured interview. Results indicate a significant positive relationship between social support and both types of well-being (ps < .05); the experience of homelessness was associated with less mental well-being (p < .01). There was no evidence of moderation. Results highlight the importance of social support and economic considerations in understanding well-being among HIV+ jail detainees.
囚犯面临着不成比例的艾滋病毒负担。本研究旨在探讨社会支持与身心健康之间的关系,以及住房稳定性是否会调节感染艾滋病毒的监狱被拘留者之间的这种关系。这项横断面分析的数据来自438名接受结构化访谈的客户。结果表明,社会支持与两种幸福感之间存在显著的正相关关系(p值均小于0.05);无家可归的经历与较低的心理健康水平相关(p < 0.01)。没有证据表明存在调节作用。研究结果凸显了社会支持和经济因素在理解艾滋病毒阳性监狱被拘留者幸福感方面的重要性。
