Social representations of HIV/AIDS in mass media: Some important lessons for caregivers

“…This line of development of social representations reflects a tendency reported by Echebarría and Páez (1989), whose study participants exhibited a tendency to prefer information that was congruent with pre-existing representations and to distort newly memorized information to conform with previously held representations.

“…Several researchers ( e.g. , Morin, Charles & Maylon, 1984; Velimirovic, 1987) report that HIV-positive individuals display many psychological reactions which mirror Kubler-Ross’ stages of Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. Dailey (1990) draws a comparison between these stages of coping and the AIDS infection cycle.…”
