Developing a method to assess the specificity of HIV disclosure plans
One challenge for people living with HIV is deciding when, where and how to share their HIV status (onward HIV disclosure). HIV status-sharing can result in individual (e.g., social support, medication adherence), and public health (e.g., reduced onward HIV transmission) benefits. We developed a coding scheme based on participants' free responses to assess the ability of young adults with perinatally acquired HIV to make a specific HIV disclosure…
“If there was no stigma around it, I would tell people”
Sharing one's HIV status with others is complex for youth with perinatally acquired HIV (PAH). However, the support from sharing one's HIV status may assist with HIV-related challenges. This study explored barriers and facilitators of HIV status sharing among UK-based youth living with PAH. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with ten youth with PAH, ten members of their social networks and five HIV professionals, this study examined the comple…
A global scoping review of published HIV disclosure counselling guidelines
Sharing an HIV status with others (onward HIV disclosure) can increase social support for people living with HIV (PLWH). Professionals working with PLWH are often unsure, however, about how to offer advice, particularly in the era of U = U. HIV disclosure practice guidelines could help to increase professionals' confidence and competence in this area. We conducted a global scoping review of HIV disclosure counselling guidelines for professionals …
The process of developing an HIV disclosure intervention for youth with perinatally acquired HIV
Sharing one's HIV status with others (onward HIV disclosure) for youth with perinatally acquired HIV (PAH) is often difficult but may assist with challenges associated with living with HIV. We describe the development of an intervention to help HIV-sharing decision-making for UK and Ugandan youth with PAH. The methods included : (1) semi-structured interviews with 50 participants (20 with PAH patients aged 18-25 years, 20 friends, family or partn…
“It empowered me to move my timeline forward”
Young adults living with perinatally acquired HIV (PAH) face many stressors. Sharing one's status may help with coping with these challenges but there are no rigorously evaluated interventions to support HIV status sharing in this population. The aim of this study was to explore the experiences of participants in a novel HIV status-sharing intervention guided by motivational interviewing. We used a cross-sectional, qualitative design. Ten young a…
Cultural adaption, translation, preliminary reliability and validity of psychological and behavioural measures for adolescents living with HIV in Botswana
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains a significant public health issue among young people living in Botswana. There is a need for reliable and valid psychological and behavioural measures of causally important constructs for this population. We developed a new HIV knowledge measure for use with 10-19-year-olds living with HIV and translated and adapted additional tools measuring HIV adjustment, HIV disclosure cognitions and affect, HIV comm…
Priorities for HIV and chronic pain research
The Global Task Force on Chronic Pain in HIV published seven research priorities in the field of HIV-associated chronic pain in 2019: (1) causes; (2) management; (3) treatment individualization and integration with addiction treatment; (4) mental and social health factors; (5) prevalence; (6) treatment cost effectiveness; and (7) prevention. The current study used a web-based survey to determine whether the research topics were aligned with the p…
The HIV Empowering Adults’ Decisions to Share
Young adults with perinatally acquired HIV (PAH) face numerous challenges, including antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence, managing onward HIV transmission risks and maintaining wellbeing. Sharing one's HIV status with others (onward HIV disclosure) may assist with these challenges but this is difficult. We developed and tested the feasibility of an intervention to help HIV status sharing decision-making for young adults with PAH. The study use…
The Global Task Force for Chronic Pain in People with HIV (PWH)
Chronic pain is a common comorbidity in people with HIV (PWH), with prevalence estimates of 25-85%. Research in this area is growing, but significant gaps remain. A Global Task Force of HIV experts was organized to brainstorm a scientific agenda and identify measurement domains critical to advancing research in this field. Experts were identified through literature searches and snowball sampling. Two online questionnaires were developed by Task F…
Cultural Adaption, Translation, Preliminary Reliability and Validity of Key Psychological and Behavioural Measures for 18 to 25 Year-Olds Living with HIV in Uganda
HIV remains a significant public health issue among young adults living in Uganda. There is a need for reliable and valid measures of key psychological and behavioural constructs that are related to important outcomes for this population. We translated, adapted and tested the psychometric properties of questionnaires measuring HIV stigma, HIV disclosure cognitions and affect, antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence, social support, personal values…
Psychological and Behavioural Within-participant Predictors of Adherence to Oral HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)
Oral PrEP's effectiveness relies on adequate adherence during periods of substantial HIV risk. Since most PrEP users will miss doses, understanding predictors within participants can help to explain adherence. We used a cross-sectional, within-participant design with 67 gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men taking PrEP daily. Using a questionnaire, informed by the Information Motivation Behavioral Skills Model, participants were aske…
Slow and Steady But Not Related to HIV Stigma
We're touching the topic, but we're not opening the book
HIV-related stressors affecting young adults with perinatally acquired HIV (PHIV+) and their siblings include parental and sibling ill-health and death, own ill-health, HIV disclosure, and stigma. Young people with PHIV+ typically share their HIV status with family members. We explored sibling relationships in young people with PHIV+. Ten participants (six females, 17-23 years old) with PHIV+ took part in a semi-structured interview, analysed usi…
What is the best way to share an HIV diagnosis with an intimate partner? An experimental study of assertive disclosure communication
Living with HIV presents challenges to wellbeing and managing one’s own and others’ health. Sharing an HIV positive diagnosis can increase social support and antiretroviral adherence and reduce onward HIV transmission. However, HIV disclosure anxiety is common with concerns about partner responses. There is limited research on whether the way HIV is shared affects partners’ responses. We assessed whether communication style influences hypothetica…
Mechanisms of Motivational Interviewing for Antiretroviral Medication Adherence in People with HIV
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV requires strict regimen adherence. Motivational interviewing (MI) can improve ART adherence. MI process studies have rarely focussed on ART adherence. Such studies may facilitate MI modifications to improve outcomes. This study employed a single group pre and post-test design with 62 adults with HIV (16 female; mean age 40 years). Therapist use of MI-consistent (MICO) methods, MI spirit, and client change and …
I don't even know how to start that kind of conversation
Young people with perinatally acquired HIV are now surviving into late adolescence and adulthood. We explored HIV communication within mother/adolescent dyads following naming of the adolescents' HIV. Five adolescents with perinatally acquired HIV (14-16 years) and their biological mothers were interviewed separately. HIV communication between mothers and children was rare. Discussion most commonly related to biomedical aspects of HIV. Onward HIV…
A longitudinal evaluation of an intensive residential intervention (camp) for 12–16 year olds living with HIV in the UK
There are large numbers of young people with HIV globally, the majority of whom have perinatally acquired HIV (PAH). Despite evidence of lower levels of wellbeing in young people with PAH compared to HIV unaffected peers, there are few psychosocial interventions for this population. Residential interventions (camps) for young people with HIV have the potential for enhancing well-being and improving HIV-related outcomes. There have not been any qu…

Anxiety and depression symptoms in young people with perinatally acquired HIV and HIV affected young people in England
Adolescents with perinatal HIV (PHIV) may be at higher risk of anxiety and depression than HIV negative young people. We investigated prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms in 283 PHIV and 96 HIV-affected (HIV-negative) young people in England recruited into the Adolescents and Adults Living with Perinatal HIV (AALPHI) cohort. We used Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) scores and linear regression investigated predictors of highe…

Intimate relationships in young adults with perinatally acquired HIV
An increasing number of children born with perinatally acquired HIV (PAH) are surviving into late adolescence and early adulthood. At this developmental stage, forming and sustaining intimate relationships is important. Young adults with PAH face both normative challenges and additional, HIV-related, relationship stressors. One key issue is the decision about whether and how to share their HIV status with others. Being able to disclose one's HIV …

Episodic medication adherence in adolescents and young adults with perinatally acquired HIV
Due to the success of antiretroviral (ART) medications, young people living with perinatally acquired HIV (PHIV+) are now surviving into adolescence and young adulthood. Understanding factors influencing ART non-adherence in this group is important in developing effective adherence interventions. Most studies of ART adherence in HIV-positive populations assess differences in adherence levels and adherence predictors between participants, over a p…

An investigation of psychological well-being and cultural identity in British Asian Female university students
The aim of this study was to determine whether cultural identity was significantly related to well-being in a sample of British Asian female University students. A cohort, correlational design was used. Seventy-seven female university students of Asian descent (Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, and Sri Lankan) all born or educated in Britain (age range: 18–29 years old) were recruited from Royal Holloway, University of London, between September 200…
An evaluation of a brief motivational interviewing training course for HIV/Aids counsellors in Western Cape Province, South Africa
HIV/AIDS counselling in South Africa covers a range of areas of prevention and treatment with a commonly used model of lay counsellors trained by non-governmental organisations and working alongside professionals in public health settings. This study presents a single group evaluation of a six-session (12-hour) course of Motivational Interviewing (MI) delivered to 17 HIV/AIDS lay counsellors working in peri-urban settings in Western Cape Province…
Coping and psychological adjustment in adolescents with vertically acquired HIV
Children with vertically acquired HIV face the challenges of adolescence in addition to the demands of coping with their illness. The relationship between coping and psychological adjustment has been widely studied in adults and children with chronic diseases but it is poorly understood in adolescents with HIV. This study aimed to identify whether a UK sample of adolescents with vertically acquired HIV had poor psychological adjustment and to cla…
No reductions and some improvements in South African lay HIV/Aids counsellors' motivational interviewing competence one year after brief training
In South Africa, lay HIV/AIDS counsellors are trained in both client-centred and more directive, health-advising techniques. Both approaches are limited in facilitating health behaviour when clients are ambivalent. Motivational interviewing (MI) is a counselling approach that develops the client's intrinsic motivation to change. Evangeli et al. evaluated a 12-hour course of MI delivered to 17 lay HIV/AIDS counsellors in Western Cape Province, Sou…
Does message framing predict willingness to participate in a hypothetical HIV vaccine trial
It is vital that enough participants are willing to participate in clinical trials to test HIV vaccines adequately. It is, therefore, necessary to explore what affects peoples' willingness to participate (WTP) in such trials. Studies have only examined individual factors associated with WTP and not the effect of messages about trial participation on potential participants (e.g., whether losses or gains are emphasized, or whether the outcome is ce…
Intimate relationships in young adults with perinatally acquired HIV
Due to developments in anti-retroviral treatment, an increasing number of children with perinatally acquired HIV are now surviving into late adolescence and young adulthood. This cohort is facing normative challenges in terms of their intimate relationships as well as challenges that face all individuals with HIV regardless of the route of transmission (for example, concerns about disclosure). There may be additional issues specific to having gro…
Parenting considerations in young adults with perinatally acquired HIV
An increasing number of children born with perinatally acquired HIV (PAH) are surviving into late adolescence and early adulthood. At this developmental stage, developing intimate relationships and having children are potentially important goals with associated normative challenges. Young people with PAH face a variety of additional HIV-related stressors that may be associated with relationships and parenting. These may include managing HIV discl…
