Abstract

This study explored whether executive functioning deficits in a pediatric Type 1 Diabetes population negatively impacted adherence and glycemic control, and whether these differences were related to method of insulin delivery. Results suggest some relationship between EF deficits and adherence but not between insulin delivery method and EF abilities.
