| description | <p><strong>Foundation</strong>: At present it observed an accelerated increase of people who live with Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Aids. This constitutes one of the main challenges which health professionals and researchers have had to face.<br /><strong>Objective</strong>: to describe the relationship between clinical and psychological variables in people with the diagnosis of Aids.<br /><strong>Methods</strong>: descriptive correlational study.

A semi- structured interview, State-trait anxiety inventory, Beck depression inventory and State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory.<br /><strong>Results</strong>: predominating age range were young adults (31.5 %= and middle age (31.5 %) most of them males (74 %) white (14%) with low educational levels (57.9 %). There was a direct correlation between CD4 count and anxiety as a state, anger status trait, anger expression index and depression.<br /><strong>Conclusion</strong>: there are interlinks among the studied psychological and clinical variables, strong associations among them were found.
