"Prevalence, risk and protective factors for common mental disorders among
young people living with HIV compared to their uninfected peers
from the Kenyan Coast: A cross-sectional study"
This dataset contains data collected from young people living with HIV (n=406) and their

We collected data (sociodemographic, psychosocial and for key outcomes) through face to face
interviews and using audio-computer assisted self-interview (ACASI), for instruments asking
about sensitive/personal information.
