Change in Self-Care Inventory (SCI) Score From Baseline to 6 Months Primary · 6 months

Estimate of self-management will be assessed via the Self-Care Inventory questionnaire. This scale measures self-reported adherence to diabetes self-care behaviors. A higher score on 1-5 scale is associated with more self care behaviors, i.e., better outcomes. The outcome was mean score on the scale. If a participant responded N/A, this question was not included in calculation of mean score.

Sponsor's own description

To test a text messaging intervention using MyDiaText and financial incentives to determine whether such an intervention will improve self-reported self-care behaviors in children 12 to 18 years old. The intervention will consist of daily text messages sent to the subject's personal mobile device. Subjects will be incentivized to respond to text messages via a lottery financial incentive. Previously developed text messages based on the American Diabetes Association (ADA) behavior goals will be used for this intervention.
