Background: Despite the promising developments in medical science in recent years, the global HIV/AIDS epidemic continues to grow. It has gained prominence in India as a growing public health issue. India has the third largest HIV epidemic in the world. In 2017, HIV prevalence among adults (aged 15-49) was estimated 0.2% (UNAIDS 2017). Overall this highly heterogenic population is slowing down and concentrated among key affected population. However the vulnerabilities that drive the epidemic vary due to its strong ties with gender inequalities. Social response towards people living with HIV+ (PLWH) is accompanied with denial, stigma and discrimination which is relatively seen more in women (Brown et al., 2003, Hollen, 2010, Vlassoff et al., 2012). The available research evidences indicate that gender based disparities adversely affect the psychosocial correlates such as ways of coping, mental health and rumination in PLWH. Aim: To assess the gender difference between HIV+ males and females on their ways of coping, mental health, and rumination. Method: To carry out the research, purposive sampling was employed on 100 HIV+ patients including 50 males and 50 females. Results: The significant gender difference was found between HIV+ males and females on their ways of coping, mental health and rumination. Result indicated in comparison to their counterpart males were found to be associated more towards problem focused coping and positive mental health. On the other hand females scored higher on rumination whereas flow was found to be higher in males. Conclusion: The role of gender disparities was found to have a significant impact on ways of coping, mental health and rumination in HIV+ males and females.Keywords

Knowledge sharing and mutual trust are culture-specific virtues and vital components for organizations’ success. In this research, we investigated the effect of Organizational Knowledge Sharing Practices (OKSP) and Innovation Strategy (IS) on Knowledge Sharing (KS) among Indian service sector employees. Moreover, moderating role of Mutual Trust (MT) between Organizational knowledge sharing practices, Innovation strategy, and Knowledge sharing was also examined on a sample of 150 service sector employees (Male = 112, Female = 38). The correlation results revealed that Organizational knowledge sharing practices and Innovation Strategy significantly and positively correlated with Knowledge Sharing dimensions- explicit knowledge sharing and tacit knowledge sharing. Furthermore, stepwise regression analyses to examine the moderating effect of Mutual trust revealed that Organizational knowledge sharing practices significantly predicted explicit knowledge sharing (β = .48; p<.01) and tacit knowledge sharing (β = .51; p<.01) in the group with high mutual trust. Thus, cultural traits and behaviors such as trust and knowledge sharing would be inculcated within organization practices to experience better psychological and organizational outcomes.Keywords
