摘要
目的:评估巴基斯坦艾滋病毒社区组织(cbo)工作的男男性行为者(MSM)、变性女性(TW)和女性性工作者(FSW)的就业时间和情商对心理健康的影响。研究设计:解释性顺序混合方法研究。研究地点和时间:2023年11月至2024年4月,巴基斯坦16个地区和50个地点的cbo。研究方法:年龄在18岁以上,自我认定为MSM、TW或FSW,并在CBO工作的个人被招募。采用Ryff心理健康量表测量心理幸福感,采用Wong and Law情绪智力量表(WLEIS)测量情绪智力。多元线性回归用于识别心理健康的预测因子。对CBO员工进行了10次深入的定性访谈。结果:共有188名CBO员工参与了定量调查;其中MSM 128例(68.1%),FSW 18例(9.6%),TW 42例(22.3%)。多元回归分析显示,离家居住(β = 2.85, p = 0.038)、自杀意念史(β = -3.74, p = 0.022)和情绪智力(β = 3.25, p)是心理健康的正向预测因子。有自杀意念的历史与心理健康状况不佳有关。有定性证据表明,CBO就业改善心理健康。关键词:男男性行为者,变性女性,女性性工作者,心理健康,艾滋病毒,社区组织
The Effect of Emotional Intelligence and Employment on the Psychological Well-Being of HIV Key Population Workers.
Objective: To assess the duration of employment and examine the impact of emotional intelligence on the psychological well-being of men who have sex with men (MSM), trans women (TW), and female sex workers (FSW) working in HIV community-based organisations (CBOs) in Pakistan.
Study design: Explanatory sequential mixed-methods study. Place and Duration of the Study: CBOs in 16 districts and 50 sites across Pakistan, from November 2023 to April 2024.
Methodology: Individuals over 18 years of age, self-identifying as MSM, TW, or FSW, and working at a CBO were enrolled. Psychological well-being was measured using the Ryff's psychological well-being scale, and emotional intelligence was measured using the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence scale (WLEIS). The multiple linear regression was used to identify predictors of psychological well-being. Ten in-depth qualitative interviews were also conducted among CBO workers.
Results: A total of 188 CBO workers were included in the quantitative survey; of these, 128 (68.1%) were MSM, 18 (9.6%) were FSW, and 42 (22.3%) were TW. The multiple regression analysis showed that residence away from family (β = 2.85; p = 0.038), history of suicidal ideation (β = -3.74; p = 0.022), and emotional intelligence (β = 3.25; p <0.001) were significant predictors of psychological well-being. The qualitative analysis showed a positive effect of CBO employment, contributing to professional growth and empowerment and acceptance of gender and sexuality.
Conclusion: Living away from family and having higher emotional intelligence were positive predictors of psychological well-being. A history of suicidal ideation was associated with poor psychological well-being. There is qualitative evidence that suggests that CBO employment improves psychological well-being.
