Goal change and goal achievement for emerging adults across the pilot FAMS-T1D intervention for type 1 diabetes.

Objective: Interventions for emerging adults (EAs) with type 1 diabetes (T1D) focus on goal setting, but little is known about how goal achievement relates to intervention outcomes. We examined how goals change, how goal achievement relates to diabetes outcomes, and identified barriers and facilitators to goal achievement.

Method: EAs with T1D (N=29, age=21.

Parental Involvement and Executive Function in Emerging Adults with Type 1 Diabetes.

Objective: To examine (a) changes in parental involvement across early emerging adulthood, (b) whether yearly fluctuations in parental involvement were associated with adherence and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) over time, and (c) whether higher involvement was more beneficial for those with poorer executive function (EF).

Methods: A total of 228 high school seniors (M age = 17.76) with type 1 diabetes reported on mothers' and fathers' acceptance, knowledge of diabetes activities, disclosure to mothers and fathers regarding diabetes, and adherence at four yearly time points.

Depressive symptoms, daily stress, and adherence in late adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Objective: To examine whether depressive symptoms are associated with greater perceived daily stress and moderate the link between stress severity and poorer daily adherence in late adolescents with Type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Method: 175 late adolescents with T1D completed measures of depressive symptoms and glycemic control during a baseline laboratory assessment. This assessment was followed by a 14-day daily diary during which adolescents rated the severity of general (GS) and diabetes-specific (DSS) stressful events, as well as adherence to their diabetes regimen.
