The relationship between stigma and a rehabilitation framework [international classification of functioning, disability and health (ICF)]: three case studies of women living with HIV in Lusaka, Zambia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: To explore how the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, a rehabilitation framework, can provide a holistic understanding of stigma experiences of three women living with human immunodeficiency virus in Lusaka, Zambia. METHODS: A secondary analysis of three cases by drawing on interview transcripts collected as part of a larger longitudinal study with eighteen women living with the virus. The interview tool used the rehabilitation framework to ask questions about the impact of the virus on the body, daily activities, social participation and the future. Vignettes were produced for each of the eighteen women including information on stigma and the rehabilitation framework. Three case studies were developed from women who provided comprehensive accounts of stigma and the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. RESULTS: Stigma experiences aligned well with three dimensions of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health: participation restrictions, environmental and personal factors. These domains were used to understand stigma in three forms (i.e. enacted, self and structural stigma) as experienced by these women. CONCLUSIONS: More research is needed to ascertain how stigma and rehabilitation are related in other environments and populations and to explore how to mitigate stigma within the rehabilitation context.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONRehabilitation professionals deal with aspects of stigma and discrimination in their clinical work and this analysis offers a way to consider HIV-related stigma within rehabilitation in an organized and theoretically-informed way.The insights from this study are important for the field of HIV and for advancing understanding of the complexities of stigma in the context of rehabilitation more broadly.This analysis offers guidance to rehabilitation providers about the nuanced and multi-faceted ways that stigma can occur in the context of rehabilitation, including within their own clinical practice.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
