Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Examine the effects of patients' attachment styles (secure, mixed and fearful) on their type one diabetes management represented by A1C level	25 minutes	The following tool will be used - Relationship Scale Questionnaire (RSQ): The 30-item RSQ is valid and reliable. 76 Re-test reliability of the RSQ ranged from 0.54 to 0.78 and correlation coefficients of RSQ and RQ ranged from 0.41 to 0.6191. Adolescent Relationship Scale Questionnaire (A-RSQ): Sümer & Güngör (1999) used the A-RSQ and report validity of 0.7-0.95 as well as an internal consistency of 0.82.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
a) Effect of attachment style on self efficacy level in patients.	25 minutes	The following tool will be used - Self-Efficacy of Diabetes Self-Management (SEDM): This is a 10-item questionnaire that is used to assess perceived self-efficacy to preform diabetes care behaviours. Respondents are asked to score responses on a 1-10 Likert scale in which '1= not at all sure' to '10= completely sure'.
a) Effect of attachment style on self efficacy level in parents.	25 minutes	The following tool will be used - Self-Efficacy of Diabetes Self-Management (SEDM): This is a 10-item questionnaire that is used to assess perceived self-efficacy to preform diabetes care behaviours. Respondents are asked to score responses on a 1-10 Likert scale in which '1= not at all sure' to '10= completely sure'.
b)Compare diabetes management self-efficacy and attachment style in patients.	25 minutes	To compare diabetes self-efficacy (SEDM) in patients and their parents, paired t-tests will be calculated. In addition, to compare attachment styles in patients and their parents, McNemar's test will be used. Paired t-tests and McNemar's tests effectively take into account the correlations between parent-adolescent measures from the same family.
