Abstract

This paper explores the relationship of some psychological variables to control of insulin­dependent diabetes in children. Twenty-eight diabetic children completed two scales measuring anxiety (STAIC) and depression (CDS) in the second day of their stay in a summer camp. The metabolic state was controlled by daily and systematized glycaemia determinations. Results showed that poor metabolic control was associated to high anxiety and depression levels.
