| Abstract | This study examined the role of psychological well-being in promoting consistent condom use among a sample of HIV-positive adults ages 50 and older living in New York City. Data were drawn from the Research on Older Adults with HIV (ROAH) project, and 328 sexually active participants (ages 50 to 78) were included in this cross-sectional analysis. Participants completed the Ryff Scales of Psychological Well-being (Ryff Journal of Personality and Social Psychology 57(6):1069–1081, 1989) and a detailed measure of sexual behavior in the past 90 days. Separate regression models were constructed by gender and sexual orientation (i.e., gay/bisexual men, straight men, and women). Psychological well-being was positively associated with sustained prevention practice, i.e. consistent condom use during every act of anal or vaginal sex. The effects of psychological well-being were observed over and above those associated with alcohol and drug use or disease severity (i.e. presence of an AIDS diagnosis). Unique dimensions of psychological well-being were associated with protected sex practice for each of the three gender/sexual orientation cohorts. This study is among the first to identify associations among specific psychological resources and consistent condom use among HIV-positive persons, and provides support for a salutogenic, eudaimonic approach to understanding and fostering prevention behavior among HIV-positive older adults. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
