Abstract:
The current study examined emotional distress, quality of life, physical health, and reasons for living in AIDS patients. Analyses revealed that emotional distress was associated with negative cognitive schemas related to the medical illness but not with physical functioning or role limitations. Importance attached to reasons for living reported by AIDS patients was best understood by overall quality of life. Reasons for living were not related to physical functioning. Results suggest that AIDS patients with poor physical functioning may maintain important reasons for living if a high sense of quality of life is achieved. Implications for improved assessment and treatment of quality of life in AIDS patients include treatment strategies that foster a sense of achievement, strengthen interpersonal relationships, and increase positive self-expression.
