“…Estos resultados sugieren que la SWFL asociada con la percepción del buen funcionamiento familiar (adecuada cohesión familiar, apoyo de los miembros de la familia, ausencia de conflictos, etc.) es una variable importante para el logro de una vida feliz y plena sin la aparición de un conjunto de síntomas depresivos, en los adolescentes (Ferro & Boyle, 2015;Gladstone, Parker, Mitchell, Wilhelm, & Malhi, 2005;Sheeber, Davis, Leve, Hops, & Tildesley, 2007;Shittu et al, 2014). Los hallazgos son importantes desde un punto de vista práctico, pues una disminución de la satisfacción familiar puede ser explicada por la percepción de disfuncionalidad familiar y la presencia de síntomas depresivos, lo cual resulta ser más frecuente en la adolescencia (Safer, 2009).…”

Se examinó la estructura factorial, la confiabilidad, la validez convergente y discriminante, y la invarianza factorial por sexo, de la Satisfaction with Family Life Scale (SWFLS). Los participantes fueron 804 estudiantes de primaria y secundaria de escuelas privadas de Lima, con un promedio de edad de 13.5 años (DE = 1.6). Los resultados confirman la estructura unidimensional de la escala (χ2 = 3.49, df = 5, p = 0.63; χ2/df = 0.69; GFI = 0.998; CFI = 1; NFI = 0.998; RMSEA = 0 [IC90% 0, 0.038] y SRMR = 0.007), la invarianza factorial por sexo y una consistencia interna adecuada (α = 0.84; ω = 0.84; H = 0.85). Se obtuvieron evidencias satisfactorias de validez convergente y discriminante de las SWFLS con medidas de funcionalidad familiar, bienestar subjetivo y depresión. En conclusión, la SWFLS presenta excelentes propiedades psicométricas para medir la satisfacción con la vida familiar en escolares limeños.

“…In addition, one study showed that medication compliance and maintaining a positive self-image were greatly augmented when adult HIV/AIDS patients remained close to their family. [36] 4.5 Core category: Accepting reality and living with HIV/AIDS In this study, some of the participants indicated that taking medication outside the home was inconvenient because doing so risked others learning about their condition. The participants concealed their medication use and disposed of the medication boxes.…”

Every year, approximately 5 million new HIV and AIDS cases are diagnosed worldwide. With advances in treatment, the lifespan of patients with HIV/AIDS has been extended, with the disease becoming a chronic condition, meaning that long-term care is necessary and complicated. Through effective treatment compliance with high-potency antiviral medication, in viva viral replication can be suppressed; thus, the life expectancy of individual patients can be extended. Therefore, taking medication regularly is crucial for patients. This study employed the grounded theory approach, using a semi structured method to conduct in-depth interviews with 10 participants with HIV/AIDS in Taiwan. Open, axial, and selective coding were used for data analysis. Results: The five categories comprised symptoms resulting from HIV/AIDS, the initial reaction to HIV/AIDS diagnosis, preventative strategies for self-protection, management of interpersonal relationships, and strategies for taking medication regularly. The core category was accepting reality and living with HIV/AIDS. This paper suggests that public education should be used to remove the stigma of HIV/AIDS. Furthermore, combining prevention, education, consultation, counseling, testing, and treatment for effective management can increase medication compliance.
