 This study will examine whether or not adolescent girls from New Mexico and West Texas diagnosed with T1DM longer than one year are more likely to be affected with mental health issues than their male counterparts and to ascertain the impact of these issues on glycemic control. Participants will be screened for mental health symptoms using three brief instruments currently used in general practice. Additionally, youth reported self-efficacy and parenting styles will be assessed. The identified instruments are widely used in pediatric clinical and research settings and are appropriate for this age group. Upon completion of each screening the appropriate follow up care or referral for services will be completed in the interest of patient care. A chart review will be conducted at enrollment to obtain demographic information and a history of diabetes management and care, then again at 12 months after the enrollment.
