“…Studies about experiences. Of the 23 studies about experiences with peer support, 15 concerned experiences with providing peer support (Table 1; studies 2, 4, 5, 7-9, 15-23), [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49] four addressed experiences with receiving peer support (Table 1, studies 1, 6, 11, 13), [50][51][52][53] and four explored PLHIV's views on both providing and receiving peer support (Table 1, studies 3, 10, 12, 14).

“…With respect to the results, nine studies reported that peer supporters provided practical, informational, emotional, and/or social support (studies 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 17, 23) 36 – 38 , 40 , 43 , 49 , 55 – 57 and modeled healthy behavior (studies 8, 9, 17). 39 , 40 , 43 Studies have shown that peer supporters feel empowered in their own lives, have different motivations (such as being a role model and helping others), learn new skills and share knowledge, gain self-awareness, and become more visible in the community.…”

People living with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy need support related to linkage to care and self-management in everyday life. Peer support has been found to provide varied support according to the unique needs of the group. This scoping review aims to provide an overview of research on peer support provided to people living with HIV. A search was conducted in eight databases until May 2021, and two reviewers independently screened all identified studies. We sorted the included studies into categories and conducted descriptive analyses. For this communication, we included 34 studies representing three study categories: the experiences of peer support (n = 23), program descriptions (n = 6), and training of peer supporters (n = 5). The studies were published between 2000 and 2021 and included 4275 participants from 10 countries. The flexibility of peer support complements healthcare services, but there is a need to clarify and adjust the ongoing support when living with HIV.

“…It is argued that people living with HIV approaching adoption services uphold resilient qualities reported in the above studies. Often, they have worked hard to invest in support or helping services and coping strategies, which enables them to respond well to future life challenges (Cane, 2018), although this does not necessarily mean that every person with HIV seeking to adopt is resilient enough to do so.…”

This article discusses the challenges faced by people in the adoption process who are living with HIV, looking especially at resilience factors. Resilience is framed in the context of HIV-related infertility that motivates people living with HIV to apply for adoption. The article draws on psychological definitions of resilience and presents four factors that promote and sustain it: individual strengths, good health management, social network and wider recognition in society. This is illustrated by a case study. The study emphasises that ‘the prospective adoptive child’ should always be at the centre of any assessments and encourages social workers to consider sensitive and inclusive practice when assessing prospective adopters living with HIV.

“…As a severe disease, HIV is a critical matter due to its many complications, such as mortality, high financial costs caused by treatment and care, social and psychological problems like depression, and many other issues (Cane, 2018). There has been an increase in the number of patients with HIV whose risky behaviors play a vital role in this trend (King & Winchester, 2018).…”

There are many social concerns towards HIV disease and people feel irrational fears of infection and modes of virus transmission. These factors might affect the temperament and character dimensions, as well as cognitive emotion regulation strategies. Accordingly, psychological therapies can be used as beneficial tools to identify the disease and to mitigate the related concerns. This study aimed at comparing the effectiveness of Schema Therapy (ST) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) on temperament and character (TC) dimensions and cognitive emotion regulation (CER) strategies in patients with HIV. In terms of methodology, this was an experimental study based on the pretest-posttest and control group. Also, this was applied research in terms of objective. The statistical population comprised all patients with HIV who were under treatment in behavioral disorders clinics of Health Centers in Hamedan, Iran, during 2019-2020. Of them, 45 subjects were chosen by using simple random sampling then were assigned to three groups (n=15), including two intervention groups and one control group. To assess the considered variables, the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI) designed by Cloninger (1994), and the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) (2001) were used. According to ANCOVA results, ST and DBT affected temperament and character dimensions and there was a significant difference between the two groups. Therefore, although both therapies had effectiveness in surveyed variables, ST had higher effectiveness rather than DBT.
