Need analysis for AIDS-related bereavement counselling programmes to assist women affected by HIV/AIDS - an indonesian perspectiveDamar, Alita P. 30 September 2008 (has links)
AIDS-related bereavement counselling programmes / The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a need for specific
bereavement counselling programmes for women affected by HIV/AIDS in Indonesia,
where death is believed to be fated.
Six AIDS-bereaved women were recruited. Data analysis was conducted based on the
women's interview transcripts and journal entries.
The women experienced at least three traumatic life events. The most challenging
experience was learning that they have contracted a disease they knew to be mostly
associated with prostitution. Given the short lapse of time between their husbands'
deaths and learning about their seropositivity, biographical disruption appeared to
have acted as an "analgesic", while concerns to protect their children seemed to have
triggered biographical reinforcement. This phenomenon may have brought about a
positive bereavement outcome.
Specific counselling programmes for women affected by HIV/AIDS are needed, but
emphasis should first be placed on improving their wellbeing and their perception of
stigma. / Sociology / M.A. (Sociology (Social Behaviour Studies in HIV/AIDS))
