对10-16岁的1型糖尿病青少年（n= 87）进行了多维度自尊问卷（SEQ）和一种新设计的糖尿病自尊量表（DSSE）的初步验证。他们的父母完成了平行表格。坚持糖尿病治疗方案和血糖控制也assessed.ResultsIn因素分析，DSSE项目形成了一个独特的维度的自尊除了SEQ尺寸。这一因素是造成青年人总体自尊差异的独特因素。与依从性和血糖控制的显著相关性表明其同时有效。青少年和家长报告DSSE表格之间的一致性支持了评分者间的可靠性。结论研究结果为认识到DSSE维度在青少年适应糖尿病方面的重要性以及拟议评估策略的可靠性和有效性提供了初步支持。
ObjectiveThe initial validation of a brief assessment of a diabetes-specific self-esteem dimension in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.MethodsYouths with type 1 diabetes (n= 87) aged 10–16 years were administered the multidimensional Self-Esteem Questionnaire (SEQ) and a newly designed assessment of diabetes-specific self-esteem (DSSE). Their parents completed parallel forms. Adherence to the diabetes regimen and glycemic control were also assessed.ResultsIn factor analysis, DSSE items formed a distinct dimension of self-esteem in addition to the SEQ dimensions. This factor uniquely contributed to differences in youths’ global self-esteem. Significant associations with adherence and glycemic control suggested its concurrent validity. Agreement between youth- and parent-report DSSE forms supported inter-rater reliability.ConclusionsThe findings provide preliminary support for recognizing the importance of a DSSE dimension in adolescents’ adjustment to diabetes, and for the reliability and validity of the proposed assessment strategy.
