The FAHI Cognition subscale is used to create a standardized score to assess outcome. The scale range of each response is 0-4. The total score has a range of 0-12 with higher total scores indicating a higher cognitive functioning.
Social well-being Through study completion, an average of 12 months Measured using the Functional Assessment of HIV Infection (FAHI). The FAHI Social Well-being subscale will be used to create a standardized score to assess outcome. The scale range of each response is 0-4. The total score has a range of 0-32 with higher total scores indicating better social well-being.

The total score has a range of 0-6 with higher scores indicating more internalized stigma.
Resilience Through study completion, an average of 12 months Measured using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC 2). The CD-RISC contains two items and was developed as a measure of "bounce-back" and adaptability. The scale range of each response item is 0-8. The total score range is 0-16 with higher scores indicating higher resilience.
