Description

Introduction: Diabetes is a chronic disease with fatal health complications. Identifying the
psychological factors that control this disease is very important, one of which is Quality of
Life (QoL).
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of a QoL education program on
psychological well-being (PWB) and adherence to treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes.
Materials and Methods: This is a pilot study with a quasi-experimental design based on
pre-test and post-test phases. The statistical population consists of all diabetic patients
referred to health centers in Semnan City, Iran during the 6months from March to
September 2018. Of them,30 type 2 diabetes, aged 30-60 years (male and female) were
selected based on the inclusion criteria and randomly assigned to the intervention and
control groups. They were first assessed by using Hayes’s general adherence scale (GAS)
and Ryff’s psychological well-being scale the short form (PWBS-SF).Then, the intervention

group received QoL education in 12 sessions, once per week each for 90 min. Then, post-
test assessments were carried out. The collected data were analyzed using MANCOVA.

Results: The QoL education program significantly increased adherence to treatment (P=0.005)
and PWV and all its dimensions (autonomy, environmental mastery, personal growth, positive
relations with others, be purposeful in life, self-acceptance) in patients (P=0.005).
Conclusion: Since diabetes is one of the chronic diseases that need constant care and there is
no definitive and immediate treatment for it, increasing PWB and adherence to treatment in
patients to control this disease by QoL education can be very effective.
