  • Group Composition and Its Impact on Effective Group Treatment of HIV and AIDS Patients
    Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, Vol. 7, No. 4, 1995 Group Composition and Its Impact on Effective Group Treatment of HIV and AIDS Patients Margaret J. Siebert 1 and William I. Dorfman 1 This paper reviews the literature on group therapy in the treatment of people with the Human Immunodeficiency l,qrus (HIIO and people with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Specifically, it examines the effect of group composition on the curative factors of group therapy. The variables of group composition explored are stage of illness, risk group for contracting HII~, and gender. This paper suggests that support groups that are homogeneous for stage of illness, risk behaviors, and gender provide members with the greatest benefits through facilitating the curative factors of group therapy: instillation of hope, universality, and group cohesion. KEY WORDS: groups; support; HIV. INTRODUCTION Studies have found that people who test positive for the Human Im- munodeficiency Virus (HIV) are likely to react with an increase in feelings of anxiety and depression (Tross and Hirsch, 1988). Many people have looked to the mental health system for help in dealing with their reactions to their HIV-positive status. Several studies have revealed that people who test positive for HIV, and people with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syn- drome (AIDS) have an interest in support groups and psychotherapy for help in coping with their diagnosis and the sequelae of AIDS (Child and Getzel, 1989; Donlou and Wolcott, 1985, as cited in Fawzy et aL, 1991; Wolcott et aL, 1986). Group therapy is the approach utilized most frequently by mental health workers to assist people in dealing with the emotional consequences 1Nova Southeastern University, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33314.

  • Rapid Review Response: the Use of Facilitated Peer Support Group Model for People Living with HIV Question 1) What Are the Benef
    Rapid Review Response: The Use of Facilitated Peer Support Group Model for People Living with HIV Question 1) What are the benefits of group interventions for persons living with HIV/AIDS (PHAs), and 2) What are best practices in administering group intervention programming for PHAs? The Issue and Why It’s Important Therapeutic interventions utilizing group dynamics have evolved from basic “group therapy” (guided by a therapist and attended by several clients), to complex group interventions tailored to therapeutic needs and contextual factors (e.g., inpatient vs. outpatient, homogeneous vs. heterogeneous groups, and short vs. long term) (see Appendix 1 for a figure that outlines factors in group dynamics) (1). In the domain of health, group interventions have become increasingly popular for supporting persons affected by illness (2). In their special report series for the “International Journal of Group Psychotherapy” Sherman et al (2004) identify the following benefits of group interventions drawn from the literature: • They serve as forums for peer support, providing a sense of universalism or shared experience, and an opportunity to learn from others facing similar challenges; • Participants may derive hope by witnessing others face the challenge of illness with resourcefulness, experience renewed self-worth by helping others who are faring more poorly than they are (e.g., via downward and upward social comparison processes; • Peer support and modeling also may contribute to new coping resources and self-efficacy, perhaps more effectively than is possible in individual therapy. • Moreover, groups are often regarded by medical patients as less stigmatizing and by health providers as more cost-effective than individual treatment (3).

Kemp: DBT and Schizophrenia Dialectical Behavior Therapy as a Possible Treatment Modality for Schizophrenia Cheyenne Kemp Brigham Young University Abstract This paper evaluates the effectiveness of dialectical behavior therapy as an additional treatment modality for schizophrenia. Schizophrenia affects approximately 1% of the world’s population and most of the individuals diagnosed with it never fully recover. Due to the severity of this disorder, it is important to discover effective treatment modalities that could aid in symptom management, such as dialectical behavior therapy. Some articles used in this review describe background information on schizophrenia and dialectical behavior therapy; the other articles describe primary research conducted using dialectical behavior therapy. This paper explains the symptoms and current treatment for schizophrenia. Likewise, dialectical behavior therapy is explained through its incorporation of the ideas of acceptance and change by using specific stages of treatment, modes of treatment, and skills training.
