DIABETES
Data collection for both clinical variables and psychometric measures was conducted exclusively at the diabetes clinic. Baseline assessments were carried out prior to the intervention, and outcome measurements were collected at both the baseline and 6-month follow-up time points. At baseline, comprehensive data encompassing sociodemographic information, including sex, age, living arrangements (whether living at home or in independent living), and education level, were collected to provide a descriptive profile of the participants. Furthermore, diabetes duration, age at onset of diabetes, and type of treatment such as multiple daily injections (MDI) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). Moreover, height (m) and weight (kg) were measured by trained HCPs and used to calculate body mass index (BMI).
