Feasibility Study of a Behavioral Parent Intervention to Support Self-management in Pediatric Typ 1 Diabetes

This is a novel intervention based on established CBT-based parenting strategies that are regularly used to strengthen parent-child cooperation and reduce conflicts. Here, the strategies are adapted to address typical challenges of T1D family life. The program structure consists of six weekly modules and a seventh booster module. Each of the first six modules has a theme with information on a parental strategy associated with the theme, self-reflective questions, and an assignment where parents plan to implement the strategy during the upcoming week. One month later, a seventh session is held to summarize the program and make plans for future progress.
