摘要：

The aim of this study was to generate a theoretical stage model that describes transgender women's coping strategies and responses after a new HIV diagnosis. The sample included 18 transgender women living with HIV in a large metropolitan city in central Indiana. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, digitally recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using grounded theory methods. Participants commonly described the experience of being newly diagnosed with HIV as, having the world change. Four stages through which attempts at coping occurred were identified: having the world come crashing down; shutting out the world; living in a dark world; and reconstructing the world. This model advances our understanding of the social and behavioral factors that influence how transgender women cope with a new HIV diagnosis and how their coping responses influence entry and engagement in the HIV care continuum.
