Book Handbook of Psychology and Diabetes

Download or read book Handbook of Psychology and Diabetes written by Clare Bradley and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook fulfils a pressing need within the area of psychological measurement in diabetes research and practice by providing access to material which has either been widely dispersed through the psychological and medical literature or has not previously been published. Journal articles describing the psychometric development of scales have rarely included the scales themselves but this book includes copies of scales and a wealth of additional information from unpublished theses, reports and recent manuscripts. You will find information about the reliability, validity, scoring, norms, and use of the measures in previous research presented in one volume. The Handbook is designed to help researchers and clinicians: - To select scales suitable for their purposes - To administer and score the scales correctly - To interpret the results appropriately. Dr. Clare Bradley is Reader in Health Psychology and Director of the Diabetes Research Group at Royal Holloway, University of London. Dr. Bradley and her research group have designed, developed and used a wide variety of measures of psychological processes and outcomes. Many of these measures have been designed and developed specifically for people with diabetes. Together with diabetes-specific psychological measures developed by other researchers internationally, these instruments have played an important part in facilitating patient-centred approaches to diabetes research and clinical practice.

Download or read book Learning to Manage written by Ifunanya Hilda Ejebe and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management of type 2 diabetes in the United States is a population health priority. Approximately 1 in 10 adults in the United States have diabetes and a significant majority have inadequately controlled blood glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol. Previous research shows that many adults with diabetes lack the knowledge, skills, behaviors, and support to properly manage their condition. Diabetes self-management education has become an important part of diabetes care guidelines as a way to improve the self-management of adults with diabetes in order to lead to improve patient health and reduce inappropriate health care use and medical costs. Despite this, it is unclear who is actually receiving diabetes self-management education in the US, overall and by mode of delivery and diabetes educator type, and whether education is associated with improved population health. Therefore, the objective of this dissertation research is to investigate the distribution of diabetes self-management education, patient sociodemographic factors that influence the receipt of that education, and its contribution toward diabetes outcomes, medical expenditures, and healthcare use in US adults. We achieved this research objective by completing three specific research aims. We used nationally representative data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. We found that although a substantial majority of individuals received some form of diabetes self-management education, receiving diabetes education was associated with race/ethnicity and income (Aim 1), and varied by mode of education delivery. Individuals who received diabetes self-management education were less likely to have glycemic control but were more likely to receive antiglycemic treatment (Aim 2). Receiving diabetes self-management education was associated with greater diabetes-related ambulatory and prescription use, depending on the mode of education delivery (Aim 3). Our findings highlight some strengths of the current state of diabetes management occurring in usual care, including the widespread delivery of some form of diabetes education and its association with greater ambulatory and prescription use. However, we also found evidence of the need for more effective diabetes education delivery systems in usual care in order to improve patient self-care behaviors and reduce inpatient and emergency room use.

Each technique was contributed by experienced mental health experts who counsel people with diabetes.
