Towards a Better Understanding of Diabetes Distress, Depression and Poor Glycaemic Control (DIA-LINK Study)

There is no intervention or group-specific procedure per observation groups. Each of the 4 groups is monitored using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) for diabetes-specific problems, mood, stress, diabete distress via a smartphone app over 26 days. Study is observational/non-interventional; specific groups are enrolled to enable specific comparisons between people with/without depressive symptoms and/or diabetes distress; no specific interventions are offered to neither group.
