Abstract

Background and purpose: An active lifestyle is important for health maintenance and disease prevention. This study was to examine what factors predict an active lifestyle in HIV+ and HIV- adults from the United States Deep South.

Methods: The sample included 279 participants (174 HIV+ and 105 HIV-) who completed a comprehensive assessment. An active lifestyle composite was created using variables of employment status, level of social support, level of physical activity, and diet. Correlations and regression analyses were conducted between the active lifestyle composite and possible predictors for all (HIV+ and HIV-), HIV+, and HIV- participants, respectively.

Results: Lower levels of depression, higher socioeconomic status (SES), and younger age were significant predictors of a more active lifestyle for the full sample, HIV+, and HIV- participants, respectively.

Conclusion: SES and depression represent important factors influencing engagement in an active lifestyle in PLWH. Such factors should be considered when developing and implementing lifestyle interventions.

美国南部腹地中老年HIV感染者积极生活方式的预测因素。

背景和目的:积极的生活方式对保持健康和预防疾病很重要。这项研究是为了研究哪些因素可以预测来自美国南部腹地的HIV阳性和HIV阳性成年人积极的生活方式。方法:279名参与者(174名HIV阳性和105名HIV阴性)完成了综合评估。使用就业状况、社会支持水平、身体活动水平和饮食等变量创建了积极的生活方式组合。分别对所有(HIV+和HIV-)、HIV+和HIV-参与者的积极生活方式组合与可能的预测因子进行相关性和回归分析。结果:较低的抑郁水平、较高的社会经济地位(SES)和较年轻的年龄分别是全样本、HIV+和HIV-参与者更积极的生活方式的重要预测因素。结论:社会经济状况和抑郁是影响PLWH患者积极生活方式参与的重要因素。在制定和实施生活方式干预措施时应考虑这些因素。
