What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Staff - Self-efficacy to Provide Diabetes Education Questionnaire (Newly Developed)

    Measured: Baseline and upon module completion (approximately 3 months)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Staff - Diabetes Knowledge Test

    Change in diabetes knowledge measured by multiple choice test (% correct out of 21 items) high score =better knowledge

    Measured: Baseline and upon module completion (approximately 3 months)

  2. Staff - Diabetes Attitudes (Diabetes Attitudes Scale-3 (DAS-3))

    Change in diabetes attitudes measured by 3 subscales of DAS-3 (Mean score min 1, max 5) high score=better attitudes

    Measured: Baseline and upon module completion (approximately 3 months)

  3. Staff - Intention to Recommend Diabetes Prevention Activities Questionnaire (Newly Developed)

    Change in staff's intention to recommend postpartum diabetes screening measured by a survey developed for this study (mean score; min 1, max 5) higher score= increased intention to perform action

    Measured: Baseline and upon module completion (approximately 3 months)
