Acceptance of Diabetes Regimens in Adults

  • Chapter
Handbook of Health Behavior Research II

Abstract

Diabetes affected an estimated 14 million people in the United States as of 1993 (American Diabetes Association [ADA], 1993a). There are several types of diabetes. As a group, they raise virtually all the issues of prevention, management, and adjustment dealt with in health psychology (Fisher, Delamater, Bertelson, & Kirkley, 1982), and they raise these issues across the life span, from a family’s reaction to a young child’s diagnosis with a lifelong, life-threatening disease to blindness and amputations among adults. Parallel with the complexity of the disease and the diversity of its effects, acceptance in diabetes is complex, entailing a number of skills and tasks. Acceptance is also influenced by a wide range of factors, from the economic and cultural to the personal. This complexity of acceptance and the multiple influences on it are a theme of this chapter.
