“…The association of daily adolescent disclosure to mothers with fewer self-regulation failures and better adherence suggests that disclosure may be an important social regulatory mechanism through which adolescents gain assistance to avoid self-regulatory failures and maintain adherence (Lansing & Berg, 2014). This idea is supported by the daily positive association between adolescent disclosure and perceived helpfulness of parents.…”

“…Higher self-control was associated with both lower mean daily blood glucose and smaller variability in blood glucose across the day. These results supported the argument that self-control is part of a foundation of self-regulatory skills that are necessary for successful daily diabetes management (Berg et a1., 2014; Lansing & Berg, 2014). Two daily affect regulatory pathways were hypothesized to mediate that association and subsequently examined.…”

“…For adolescents with type 1 diabetes, maintaining optimal daily blood glucose control, (i.e., tight diabetes control), is a complex daily self-regulatory process (Lansing & Berg, 2014) that requires the completion of multiple daily adherence behaviors, such as daily blood glucose checks and insulin dosing (Hoffman, 2002). Adolescents must also effectively respond to daily problems that occur while managing diabetes (e.g., high blood glucose readings or miscalculating insulin boluses), and the negative emotions these problems may elicit (Berg et al, 2013; Jaser et al, 2012).…”

Objective For adolescents with type 1 diabetes, maintaining optimal daily blood glucose control is a complex self-regulatory process that likely requires self-control. This study examined whether higher self-control was associated with lower daily negative affect about diabetes and, in turn, better daily blood glucose control, i.e., lower mean daily blood glucose (MBG) and smaller standard deviations of daily blood glucose (SDBG), through two paths: 1) self-control maintaining lower mean level of negative affect and 2) self-control buffering the association of the number of daily diabetes problems with daily negative affect. Methods Adolescents (M age=12.87 years) with type 1 diabetes (n=180) completed an initial survey containing a self-report measure of self-control. Nightly electronic diaries were completed for 14 days where adolescents reported daily problems with and negative affect about diabetes, and used a study-provided blood glucose meter. Results Hypotheses were examined through multilevel modeling. Lower mean levels of daily negative affect partially mediated the relation between higher adolescent self-control and lower MBG. Adolescent self-control also buffered the association of the number of daily problems with daily negative affect, and smaller fluctuations in daily negative affect were associated with lower SDBG. Conclusions Adolescent self-control is associated with daily affect regulatory processes that may influence MBG. However, fluctuations in daily negative affect about diabetes may represent a unique within-person daily process associated with SDBG. These findings suggest that studies examining daily disease processes and interventions targeting daily affect regulation may be important to improving health in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

“…Adolescents with better self-control capacity, i.e., the ability to modulate behavior, emotion, and cognition toward a goal (Finkenauer, Engels, & Baumeister, 2005), engage more frequently in adherence behaviors and experience better metabolic control (Berg et al, 2014; Hughes, Berg, & Wiebe, 2012; King et al, 2012; Lansing & Berg, 2014; Lansing, Berg, Butner, & Wiebe, 2016). However, there is increasing recognition that self-control is both an individual and interpersonal process.…”

This study explored whether shared self-control across a family system, including adolescent, mother, and father self-control, as well as the interaction of mother and father self-control, was associated with ease of completing adherence tasks, and the completion of adherence behaviors related to the type 1 diabetes (T1D) regimen. 137 adolescents (M = 13.48 years), mothers, and fathers completed a self-report measure of self-control, while adolescents also self-reported on ease of completing adherence tasks and the frequency with which they completed adherence tasks. Higher adolescent, mother, father, and the interaction of mother and father self-control were each associated with greater adolescent perceptions of ease of completing adherence tasks. Also, greater adolescent perception of ease of adherence mediated the association of higher adolescent, father, and the interaction of mother and father self-control on more frequent adherence behaviors. The results are consistent with the idea that family members may share the load of self-control within the family system. The results point to the importance of assessing and intervening within the entire family system to support improved quality of life and better adherence to the medical regimen in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
