About this issue
The present study examined the physiological effects of counselling in HIV positive patients. The subjects were assigned randomly to two conditions namely, control (N=50, 25 males and 25 females) and experimental (N=50, 25 males and 25 females). The subjects in the experimental group were exposed to counselling sessions one hour daily for one month. A 2 x 2 between subject’s factorial design involving two gender levels (male and female) and two treatment conditions (no counselling and counselling) with 25 replications was used in the present study. The counselling was found to reduce blood pressure, pulse rate, muscle action potential and enhance alpha EEG scores, thereby, producing its soothing and relaxing effects.
