OBJECTIVE: We sought to develop and pilot a new measure, the Diabetes-Specific Risk-Taking Inventory (DSRI), to assess unhealthy risk-taking behaviors among adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Methods: Thirteen diabetes health care providers, 30 adolescents with type 1 diabetes (aged 15–19 years, 60% female, mean A1C 8.7% [72 mmol/mol], and 33% on insulin pumps), and the adolescents' caregivers rated the perceived riskiness of each item on the DSRI. Adolescents completed the DSRI, for which they reported how often they engaged in 34 behaviors that could place them at risk for acute complications of type 1 diabetes or out-of-range blood glucose levels. Adolescents also completed the risk-taking subscale from the Risk-Taking and Self-Harm Inventory for Adolescents, and parents completed the parent-proxy Diabetes Management Questionnaire. Mean A1C during the previous year was obtained via medical chart review. Results: Results indicated good content validity and feasibility for using the DSRI in a research context, as 100% of adolescents who consented to the study completed the measure. The DSRI was positively correlated with general risk-taking and negatively correlated with diabetes management, indicating preliminary evidence of convergent validity. The DSRI also correlated with A1C. Conclusion: This pilot study extends our previous work in developing a conceptual model for illness-specific risk-taking. The DSRI is a promising new measure to assess illness-specific risk-taking, including unhealthy risk-taking behaviors, for adolescents with type 1 diabetes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
