Abstract

Disclosure about HIV / AIDS status is an important factor that supports the success of care and treatment for people living with HIV / AIDS to live longer. Self disclosure is influenced by the environment in which a person behaves, including: parenting, stigma (social culture), stereotype, socioeconomic, sex role, and education of a person. Objective: The study aims to analyze the environmental factors that influence Disclosure about HIV / AIDS status. Method: This research is an observational research with Cross sectional approach. Results: The results of the study establish three components in environmental factors that influence the Disclosure, including: Stigma (social culture) (X1) has the strongest partial correlation (39.69%) with p value: 0.001, followed by communication pattern (X2) With p value: 0,021, and temperament (X3) with p value: 0,050, these three components simultaneously have significant effect on Disclosure with p value: 0.002, The overall influence between independent variables (X1, X2, And X3) to the dependent variable (Y) is 46.7% (R Square), and the remaining 53.3% is influenced by other variables not examined in this study. Conclusion: The study concludes that stigma has the greatest effect on transparency, so intensive counseling and cross-sectoral cooperation are needed as an effort to protect, prevent HIV / AIDS transmission and treatment
