The psychological impact of pain on adolescents suffering from HIV/AIDS

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The study combined both qualitative and quantitative methods and it involved eight HIV/AIDS adolescents who knew their HIV status. The adolescents were purposively sampled from a total of 87 adolescents who complained of pain during the period of four weeks. Eight subjects out of the 87 adolescents met the selection criteria and were therefore eligible for the study.
