520 $a Age and depression scores served as covariates. Race, education, income, and number of months since seropositive diagnosis were rejected as potential covariates.
520 $a No support was found for the diathesis-stress model, perhaps due to low reliability of the health locus of control measure and because the stress measure was not sensitive to health-related stress.
520 $a Partial support for the buffering model was found in the form of a stress by social support interaction in the absence of a main effect for stress. For mothers under high but not low stress, having satisfactory social support ameliorated hopelessness.
520 $a Social support appears to be pivotal in ameliorating hopelessness in HIV positive mothers.
520 $a This study expands the female HIV literature by adding an investigation of substance-abusing minority mothers, an under-studied subset of the HIV population.
520 $a This cross-sectional study sought to predict hopelessness among a sample of fifty HIV positive mothers in Chicago based on the buffering and diathesis-stress models. The data were a subset of a larger study of women with children who did and did not have a history of involvement with the child welfare system due to reported abuse and neglect.
520 $a It was hypothesized that (a) higher social support would predict lower hopelessness among subjects with high stress (buffering model test), (b) higher chance and powerful others health locus of control beliefs would predict hopelessness among mothers with high stress (diathesis-stress model test) and (c) higher internal health locus of control scores and greater social support would predict less hopelessness (exploratory hypothesis).
520 $a Mothers were interviewed in outpatient medical clinics. The following measures were administered: the Social Support Questionnaire (Sarason, Levine, Basham, & Sarason, 1983), Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scale (Wallston, Wallston & DeVellis, 1978), Hopelessness Scale (Beck, Weissman, Lester & Trexler, 1974), Center for Epidemiological Studies' Depression Scale (Radloff, 1977), and an unpublished stress (negative life events) measure.
520 $a Partial support was found for the third hypothesis. Social support moderated the effects of hopelessness only among mothers with low internal health locus of control beliefs, perhaps because the support provided a psychological boost to low internal mothers.
