Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Habit Formation InterventionsExperimentalSingle subject design used for individual control (A-B design). During baseline phase (A), participants completed self-care activities ratings once per week for 4 weeks. During intervention phase (B), participants engaged in weekly sessions to address goals related to diabetes self-management and guided in habit formation. Participants engaged in intervention for 10 weeks, in accordance with habit formation recommendations by Lally et al. (2010). Each weekly session were held virtually (telephone or Zoom) and lasted 30-60 minutes, beginning with administration of the SDSCA and SRBAI. Participants were instructed in ongoing context-specific implementation intention to promote occupational participation in DSM through habit formation. This instruction included continued education and context modification recommendations. At two week intervals, additional areas of DSM were added until each were covered: blood glucose monitoring, nutrition, medication management, and physical activity.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Diabetes Self-Care

    The Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) is a self-report questionnaire of DSM (diet, exercise, blood-glucose monitoring, foot care, and smoking) for which individuals report frequency of activities during the past 7 days (Toobert et al., 2000). A global self-care behavior score (average of items 1-10) was reported in days per week the participant executed self-care activities. In addition, combined subscales were used for general diet, specific diet, exercise, and blood glucose testing using a global average of items 1-8, reported in days per week. As part of baseline phase data collection (Phase A), the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) was administered once weekly for 4 weeks. Following the initial evaluation, interventions (phase B) were provided to participants once per week for 10 weeks and began with administration of the SDSCA.

    Measured: 13 weeks

  2. Change in Behavior Automaticity

    The Self-Report Behavior Automaticity Index SRBAI is a measure of habit strength and automaticity. Individuals respond how they perform a target behavior using a 7-point scale, with 7 meaning a better outcome. The initial evaluation session closed the baseline phase (Phase A) and initiated the intervention phase (Phase B) of the study. In this initial session, individuals were guided in setting a context-specific implementation intention for habit formation of a simple occupational habit related to nutrition. These nutrition intentions were utilized to create target behaviors for the Self-Report Behavioral Automaticity Index (SRBAI), which was administered at the end of the first session. Following the initial evaluation, interventions were provided to participants once per week for 10 weeks and began with administration of the SRBAI.

    Measured: 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Habit formation in people with Diabete Type 2, run by Des Moines University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Diabetes Self-Care (time frame: 13 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Jul 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
