Abstract

The relationships among interpersonal competence, loneliness, depression. and immune status were examined in HIV-infected men and healthy controls. A sample of 108 men [88 HIV-1 antibody seropositive (HIV +) and 20 HIV-I antibody seronegative (HIV -)] completed the Interpersonal Competence Questionnaire at baseline and the UCLA Loneliness scale at two consecutive six-month timepoints as part of the psychosocial component of the HIV Neurobehavioral Research Center longitudinal study. Absolute number of CD4 + helper cells and depression were determined at baseline. Among seropositive men, loneliness was negatively correlated with self-perceived competence in all five relationship domains assessed: initiation of social interactions. turning down unreasonable demands (negative assertion). self-disclosure, providing emotional support to others, and conflict management. Competence or level of comfort in initiation of social interaction and management of interpersonal conflict accounted for 39% of the variance in loneliness at baseline. Level of comfort in initiation of interactions and self-disclosure accounted for 44% of the variance in loneliness at follow-up. After controlling for loneliness at baseline, an additional 12% of the variance in loneliness at follow-up was accounted for by all domains of interpersonal competence, suggesting that these dimensions of social skill may be partial determinants of loneliness. High-lonely HIV+ men had significantly fewer CD4 + helper cells…

  • Among HIV-positive men without AIDS, loneliness is associated with a lower count of CD4 T-lymphocytes in one study.

    “Among HIV-positive men without AIDS, loneliness was associated with a lower count of CD4 T-lymphocytes in one study [83] but was not associated with the CD4 count in another study [84].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
