The present study examined the association between anxiety, stigma, social support and intention to use illicit drugs, and the moderating role of social support on the association between anxiety/stigma and intention to use illicit drugs among 450 Chinese HIV-positive MSM. Findings show that controlling for significant background variables, self-stigma and anxiety were positively associated with intention to use illicit drugs, while social support was negatively associated with intention to use illicit drugs. A significant moderation effect of social support was also observed, that the negative association between self-stigma/anxiety and intention to use illicit drugs was only significant among participants with lower levels of social support. Findings highlight the importance of reducing self-stigma and anxiety, and promoting social support in drug use prevention for HIV-positive MSM.
本研究调查了焦虑、污名、社会支持与滥用药物意向之间的关系，以及社会支持对中国 450 名 HIV 阳性男男性接触者中焦虑/污名与滥用药物意向之间关系的调节作用。研究结果表明，在控制重要的背景变量后，自我污名和焦虑与滥用药物意向呈正相关，而社会支持与滥用药物意向呈负相关。还观察到社会支持的显著调节作用，即自我污名/焦虑与滥用药物意向之间的负相关仅在社会支持水平较低的参与者中显著。研究结果强调了在 HIV 阳性男男性接触者的药物使用预防中减少自我污名和焦虑、以及促进社会支持的重要性。
