Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Problem Areas in Diabetes Scale (PAID) -(Measures Diabetes Distress)

    A 20-item psychometrically validated self-report questionnaire on a 5 point Likert scale (0= not problem; 4= a serious problem). The scores are summed and multiplied by 1.25. Minimum value = 0; Maximum value = 100. Higher scores denote higher levels of diabetes related distress. The cutoff for significant distress is 33; a score of 40 is consistent with diabetes burn-out.

    baseline, 12 weeks and 24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (15)

  • Diabetes Self-efficacy Scale (DSES)

    baseline, 12 weeks and 24 weeks

  • Hemoglobin A1c (A1C)

    baseline, 12 weeks and 24 weeks

  • Mindfulness Attention and Awareness Scale (MAAS)

    baseline, 12 weeks and 24 weeks

  • Body Weight
