(Sage Publications Inc, 2020) Arda Surucu, Hamdiye; Baran Durmaz, Gulbeyaz; Turan, Engin
The purpose of this study was to investigate stigmatization, sociodemographic/diabetes-related characteristics and parents-related characteristics as predictors of a negative perception of insulin treatment in adolescents with type 1 diabetes in Turkey. The study was carried out using a cross-sectional correlation design. The research sample included 80 adolescents with type 1 diabetes who volunteered to take part. A positive perception of insulin treatment (beta = -.38, p < .001), stigmatization (beta = -.24, p = .013), informing others about one's type 1 diabetes (beta = .24, p = .017) and only using insulin when alone in public places (beta = .19, p = .042) were significant predictors of a negative perception of insulin treatment, and these variables explained 35% of the common variance. Diabetes' nurses should take stigmatization into account during their training and plan appropriate measures. Entrepreneurial, randomized, and controlled studies should be conducted to decrease the negative influence of stigmatization on the perception of insulin treatment in individuals with type 1 diabetes.
