Abstract

This review aims to synthesise the literature examining the psychosocial variables related to self-management (insulin adherence, non-adherence and administration, blood sugar monitoring, dietary behaviour, exercise behaviour) in adolescents with type 1 diabetes. A systematic search of three electronic databases was carried out and, after the application of eligibility criteria, 21 articles were assessed for quality prior to data extraction. Numerous psychological factors were found to be associated with self-management; however, correlations were typically small to moderate. The strongest associations were found between social anxiety and diet (among males); greater intrinsic motivation, conscientiousness and diet; and extraversion and exercise.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Nonmedical colleagues such as patient peers or community health workers may contribute to self-efficacy of a person with diabetes mellitus.

    “In addition, nonmedical colleagues such as patient peers1492 or community health workers1493–1495 may also contribute to self-efficacy of a person with DM.”

    From American Association of Clinical Endocrinology Clinical Practice Guideline: Developing a Diabetes Mellitus Comprehensive Care Plan-2022 Update. (2022) · cites this paper as [1494]

    The Diabetes self-efficacy and Perceived dietary self-efficacy sections relate self-efficacy to adolescents’ self-management, but do not say that patient peers contribute to it. The Discussion mentions peer support only in connection with potentially poorer glycaemic control when it threatens autonomy; the passages found do not address peers’ contribution to self-efficacy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
