摘要

尽管越来越多的研究调查了撒哈拉以南非洲因艾滋病毒/艾滋病而成为孤儿的儿童的祖父母-照顾者，但对他们的身心健康的研究仍然不足。我们提供了一个定性的性质，程度和多种变化之间的关系，从32采访乌干达的祖父母-孙子的照顾人感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病。无论损失的类型或性质如何，参与者都表现出了身体上、情感上和经济上的痛苦。这种累积的损失和随后的悲伤可能与心理和身体健康问题有关。建议开展研究，进一步探讨这一弱势群体的损失概念。

Loss as Experienced by Ugandan Grandparent-Caregivers of Children Affected by HIV/AIDS.

Despite increasing numbers of studies investigating grandparent-caregivers of children orphaned by HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa, research on their mental and physical health remains inadequate. We provide a qualitative account of the nature, extent, and relationships among multiple variations of loss emerging from 32 interviews with Ugandan grandparent-caregivers of grandchildren affected by HIV/AIDS. Regardless the type or nature of the loss, participants expressed physical, emotional, and financial distress as a result. This cumulative loss and subsequent grief could potentially be associated with mental and physical health problems. Research to further explore the concept of loss among this vulnerable population is recommended.

期刊介绍： In one forum, Journal of Loss and Trauma brings together scholarship on personal losses relating to family, health, and aging issues. The journal addresses issues dealing with psychological and physical health and interpersonal losses relative to extended family, community life, and society as a whole. In order to broaden the reader"s perspective on loss and bereavement, the journal defines loss as a major reduction in a person"s resources, whether personal, material, or symbolic, to which the person was emotionally attached. Types of loss covered include: death and dying; dissolution and divorce; loss of employment; life-threatening diseases and long-term disability; loss of possessions; homelessness.
