This study examined self-reported relationship satisfaction, depression and anxiety symptoms, and how it is related to posttraumatic growth after a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS in a population of self-identified gay males. The goal of this research was to examine the possible moderation effect of posttraumatic growth on the relationship between reported relationship satisfaction and emotional wellbeing. Gay identified males (N=67) between the ages of 18 and 70 with HIV/AIDS residing in the United States completed five study measures relating to self and partner. These measures including two demographic questionnaires (self) (partner), the Relationship Assessment Scale (RAS), the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21), and the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI). Results indicated that posttraumatic growth did not moderate the association of relationship satisfaction on variables associated with wellbeing. The rejection of five of the main hypotheses may be related to factors associated with displays and portrayals of stereotypical male gender roles, the process of identifying as a gay male, and the experience of being diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. It was found that posttraumatic growth after a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS resulted in lower reported depressive symptoms demonstrating that finding meaning in their diagnosis did have positive effects on wellbeing. Exploratory analysis demonstrated that participants who had received an AIDS diagnosis demonstrated more posttraumatic growth than participants who had received a diagnosis of HIV. Results also indicated that participants with intimate partners who also had a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS (seroconcordance) demonstrated more posttraumatic growth then those who had partners that did not have a HIV/AIDS diagnosis. Furthermore, increased relationship satisfaction was found amongst participants that cohabitated with their partners and practiced monogamy compared to participants who had other intimate relationship practices and behaviors.
