Abstract

Objective: To analyze the relationship between resilience and treatment adherence of people living with HIV / AIDS.

Material and methods: The study was quantitative, non experimental and cross-sectional, with a correlational scope. The sample was 380 participants. The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-4) were used. The data were analyzed uning the software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) v25, through the Pearson’s r correlation test and a binary logistic regression analysis. Results: A statistically significant relationship was identified (<.05) between resilience and treatment adherence in the participants, in the same way, adaptability-support networks predicted resilience by 43.3%.

Conclusions: Resilience and support networks are relevant factors in HIV / AIDS care that should continue to be studied in future research.
