Abstract

Introduction: Considering the role of marital satisfaction and adjustment in family functioning, which can be influenced by specific disease, such as acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), this study was conducted to determine the effect of practical intimate relationship skills training (PAIRS) on marital satisfaction, adjustment, and sexual function in women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and AIDS (WLHA). Material and methods: In a randomized controlled trial, 44 WLHA referred to the Behavioral Disease Counseling Clinic of Imam Khomeini Hospital, Tehran, Iran in 2019, were randomly divided into intervention and control groups based on four randomized blocks. Eight sessions of educational counseling were provided once a week for both group. At the beginning, at the end, and at four weeks following the training, Enrich marital satisfaction questionnaire, Spinner marital adjustment, and Rosen sexual function questionnaires were completed by patients and analyzed with a SPSS-21 software. Results: This study showed no significant difference between total score of marital satisfaction, marital adjustment, and sexual function before the intervention. Rate of marital satisfaction (p = 0.003), marital adjustment (p = 0.03), and female sexual function (p < 0.001) were significantly increased in the intervention group immediately and one month after the intervention. The results also indicated that 77.9% of the changes in post-test scores of marital satisfaction, 76% of marital adjustment, and 94.9% of sexual function were related to the intervention effect, demonstrating a sustainable impact of educational intervention (p < 0.001). Conclusions: PAIRS can improve marital satisfaction and adjustment and sexual function in WLHA, and influence quality of family functioning.

实用亲密关系技巧训练(PAIRS)对HIV / AIDS女性患者婚姻满意度、适应性和性功能的影响:一项随机对照试验

摘要:考虑到婚姻满意度和调整在家庭功能中的作用，这可能受到特定疾病(如获得性免疫缺陷综合征(艾滋病))的影响，本研究旨在确定实用亲密关系技能培训(PAIRS)对人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)和艾滋病(WLHA)女性婚姻满意度、调整和性功能的影响。材料与方法:随机对照试验，选取2019年在伊朗德黑兰伊玛目霍梅尼医院行为疾病咨询诊所就诊的44例WLHA，根据4个随机分组，随机分为干预组和对照组。两组每周进行一次8次的教育咨询。在培训开始、结束和结束后4周，患者分别填写《充实婚姻满意度问卷》、《Spinner婚姻调整问卷》和《Rosen性功能问卷》，并使用SPSS-21软件进行分析。结果:干预前夫妻婚姻满意度总分、婚姻适应总分、性功能总分均无显著差异。干预组的婚姻满意度(p = 0.003)、婚姻调整率(p = 0.03)、女性性功能(p < 0.001)在干预后即刻和1个月均显著提高。77.9%的婚姻满意度、76%的婚姻调整和94.9%的性功能与干预效果有关，表明教育干预的影响是持续的(p < 0.001)。结论:双性恋可以提高家庭成员的婚姻满意度、适应能力和性功能，并影响家庭功能质量。艾滋病Rev 2020;DOI: https://doi.org/10.5114/hivar.2020.101593 .
