Objectives: We hypothesized that glycemic outcomes in children with type 1 diabetes are linked to marital satisfaction of primary caregivers above and beyond parent neuroticism and child effortful control.
Methods: We evaluated a cross-sectional sample of 73 married parent families with a child (ages 7-18 years) with type 1 diabetes of at least 2 years duration. We assessed marital relationship satisfaction, parent neuroticism, and child effortful control through the use of validated questionnaires.
Objectives: Glycemic outcomes in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) vary widely, despite uniform care. We hypothesized that glycemic outcomes in children with T1D are affected by the marital relationship satisfaction of the child's parents.
Methods: We evaluated a prospective sample of 51 families with a child with newly diagnosed T1D, including 36 married parent families.
