Abstract

We examined the links between HIV-stigma, loneliness and sleep quality in 181 people living with HIV (PLWH) who completed an online self-report questionnaire. Results suggested that the indirect effect of stigma on poorer sleep through increased loneliness was significant. Researchers will address implications for research on stigma and health.
