Abstract

Abstract: In Rwanda, women have higher incidence of HIV and intimate partner violence (IPV). This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of IPV among women living with HIV (WWH) in Rwanda and measure the difference in psychological outcomes, demographic data, and HIV-related outcomes using a cross-sectional, descriptive, observational design. A convenience sample of 162 Rwandan WWH were purposefully recruited to participate. The study collected demographic data and data about IPV, depression, HIV-related stigma, coping, self-esteem, and hope. The prevalence of any form of IPV in the sample was 27% with psychological IPV being the most prevalent. Demographic data had no statistical significance with the prevalence of IPV. WWH who experienced IPV had higher HIV stigma, lower coping self-efficacy, lower self-esteem, and less hope and worse HIV psychological outcomes. Further studies are needed to look into the correlation between the two and interventions addressing IPV prevention.

卢旺达感染艾滋病毒妇女中的亲密伴侣暴力：一项横断面研究。

摘要：在卢旺达，妇女感染艾滋病毒和亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）的发生率较高。本研究采用横断面、描述性和观察性设计，旨在估算卢旺达女性艾滋病感染者（WWH）中 IPV 的发生率，并测量心理结果、人口统计学数据和艾滋病相关结果的差异。研究有目的地招募了 162 名卢旺达女性艾滋病感染者作为样本。研究收集了人口统计学数据以及有关 IPV、抑郁、与 HIV 相关的污名化、应对、自尊和希望的数据。样本中任何形式的 IPV 感染率为 27%，其中心理 IPV 感染率最高。人口统计学数据与 IPV 发生率没有统计学意义。经历过 IPV 的女性艾滋病感染者的艾滋病耻辱感更高、应对自我效能感更低、自尊心更弱、希望更少，艾滋病心理结果也更差。需要进一步研究两者之间的相关性以及预防 IPV 的干预措施。
