SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) continues to be an escalating public health problem that contributes to increased morbidity and mortality worldwide (American Diabetes Association, 2017b). According to the National Diabetes Statistics Report (2017), approximately 30.3 million (9.4%) Americans have T2D. It accounted for 252,806 deaths in 2015 in the United States. Although the complications of T2D is a major threat to the health of women of Arab descent, there is lack of information about the health practices and diabetes self-management behaviors of this population. The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the impact of diabetes knowledge, social/family support, acculturation, and psychological adjustment to diabetes on DSM behaviors and glycemic control among women of Arab descent utilizing the Roy Adaptation Model. The specific aims of this study are the following: Specific Aim 1: To describe the prevalence of DSM behaviors and diabetes control (HbA1C) among women of Arabic descent with T2D. Specific Aim 2: To investigate the relationship among diabetes knowledge, social/family support, acculturation, and psychological adjustment to diabetes on DSM behaviors and glycemic control among women of Arab descent. Method: a non- experimental correlational descriptive design was implemented in this study. A convenience sample size of 118 women of Arab descent were recruited from two clinical sites. The women participate in the study if they were (1) of Arabic descent (2) diagnosed with T2D for at least a year, (3) 18 years and older, (4) non-pregnant, and (5) able to speak and read either English or Arabic. Results: The majority of the women were between the ages 50- 59 years (33.1%), were unemployed (45.8%), were receiving a monthly income between
