What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Examine the effects of patients' attachment styles (secure, mixed and fearful) on their type one diabetes management represented by A1C level

    The following tool will be used - Relationship Scale Questionnaire (RSQ): The 30-item RSQ is valid and reliable. 76 Re-test reliability of the RSQ ranged from 0.54 to 0.78 and correlation coefficients of RSQ and RQ ranged from 0.41 to 0.6191.

    Adolescent Relationship Scale Questionnaire (A-RSQ): Sümer \& Güngör (1999) used the A-RSQ and report validity of 0.7-0.95 as well as an internal consistency of 0.82.

    Measured: 25 minutes

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. a) Effect of attachment style on self efficacy level in patients.

    The following tool will be used - Self-Efficacy of Diabetes Self-Management (SEDM): This is a 10-item questionnaire that is used to assess perceived self-efficacy to preform diabetes care behaviours. Respondents are asked to score responses on a 1-10 Likert scale in which '1= not at all sure' to '10= completely sure'.

    Measured: 25 minutes

  2. a) Effect of attachment style on self efficacy level in parents.

    The following tool will be used - Self-Efficacy of Diabetes Self-Management (SEDM): This is a 10-item questionnaire that is used to assess perceived self-efficacy to preform diabetes care behaviours. Respondents are asked to score responses on a 1-10 Likert scale in which '1= not at all sure' to '10= completely sure'.

    Measured: 25 minutes

  3. b)Compare diabetes management self-efficacy and attachment style in patients.

    To compare diabetes self-efficacy (SEDM) in patients and their parents, paired t-tests will be calculated. In addition, to compare attachment styles in patients and their parents, McNemar's test will be used. Paired t-tests and McNemar's tests effectively take into account the correlations between parent-adolescent measures from the same family.

    Measured: 25 minutes

  4. b)Compare diabetes management self-efficacy and attachment style in parents

    To compare diabetes self-efficacy (SEDM) in patients and their parents, paired t-tests will be calculated. In addition, to compare attachment styles in patients and their parents, McNemar's test will be used. Paired t-tests and McNemar's tests effectively take into account the correlations between parent-adolescent measures from the same family.

    Measured: 25 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type1diabetes, run by The Hospital for Sick Children at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Examine the effects of patients' attachment styles (secure, mixed and fearful) on their type one diabetes management represented by A1C level (time frame: 25 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
