“…The studies on determining the psychological well-being levels of the individuals have been carried out, on the one hand, and the variables affecting the psychological well-being of the individuals have been investigated, on the other. In this sense, it was noticed when the studies were reviewed that the variable of psychological well-being was correlated with the variables such as age, gender, academic success, level of education and marital status (Cenkseven, 2004;Khumalo et al, 2012), self-confidence (Sandhu, Singh, Tung and Kundra, 2012), physical health (Shields and Price, 2005), and social support (Ateş, 2016a;Du, Li, Chi, Zhao and Zhao, 2015;Karademas, 2006).…”

“…Bir taraftan bireylerin psikolojik iyi oluş düzeylerini belirlemeye yönelik çalışmalar yapılırken diğer taraftan bireylerin psikolojik iyi oluşlarını etkileyen değişkenler araştırılmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda yapılan çalışmalar incelendiğinde psikolojik iyi oluş değişkeninin kişilik özellikleri (Kokko, Tolvanen & Pulkkinen, 2013), yaş, cinsiyet akademik başarı, eğitim düzeyi ve evli olma, (Cenkseven, 2004;Khumalo, Temane & Wissing, 2012), öz güven (Sandhu, Singh, Tung & Kundra, 2012), fiziksel sağlık (Shields & Price, 2005), sosyal destek (Ateş, 2016a;Du, Li, Chi, Zhao & Zhao, 2015;Karademas, 2006), ve yalnızlık (Çeçen & Cenkseven, 2007) gibi değişkenlerle bağlantılı olduğu görülmüştür.

The chronicity of HIV infection predisposes the infected to mental health problems such as depression that demand a need for social support. The perception of social support is key to its beneficial effects. This study aimed to assess the level of perceived social support and its association with depression among patients infected with HIV in a hospital in Jos, Nigeria. In a cross-sectional study, 386 participants selected by systematic random sampling were interviewed to obtain their sociodemographic information, and they were assessed for perceived social support and depression using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support and the PHQ-9 Questionnaire respectively. Data was analysed using Epi info version 7. Half the proportion of participants (50.5%) had a moderate level of perceived social support, while 39.9% and 9.6% had low and high levels of perceived social support respectively. Female gender, age ≥ 45 years, absence of a history of being affiliated with a HIV support group, low educational status, low income, unemployment and shorter duration of known HIV diagnosis were negatively associated with lower levels of perceived social support. The prevalence of depression was 32.6%, and lower levels of perceived social support were significantly associated with depression. The results suggest gaps in the social support needs of the participants. This highlights a need for interventions aimed at improving the perception of social support among people living with HIV. Further studies are needed to identify those unmet needs so as to device strategies to address them in order to close the gaps in perception and enhance mental health in HIV care.
