Abstract

PWA today have to face new problems associated with their disease state. One of these is tied to bodily changes that are related to HAART (lipodystrophy syndrome, LDS). Applying the Identity Process Theory (Breakwell, 1986), this research aimed to study the impact that LDS body changes may have on the identity of PWA.
