A questionnaire to survey attitudes, use, and knowledge of computers was sent to 816 randomly selected members of AADE to determine the degree to which currently available computer resources are used in diabetes education and to investigate the need for future computing resources designed to support diabetes education. Analysis of the data showed that even diabetes educators who use computers infrequently have a generally favorable attitude toward them. Highest use of computers is in noneducational applications, mostly for word processing and record keeping. Most respondents believe that computers have yet to make a major contribution to the teaching and learning process in diabetes education, and few felt adequately prepared for creative use or development of computer applications. Increasing the role of computers in support of patient education will require encouragement and demonstrations of computer efficacy from health care institutions and professional organizations.
一份用于调查计算机使用态度、使用情况及相关知识的问卷被发送给了从美国糖尿病教育者协会（AADE）中随机挑选出的816名成员，以确定当前可用的计算机资源在糖尿病教育中的使用程度，并调查对未来用于支持糖尿病教育的计算资源的需求。数据分析表明，即使是很少使用计算机的糖尿病教育工作者，总体上对计算机也持积极态度。计算机的最高使用量集中在非教育应用方面，主要用于文字处理和记录保存。大多数受访者认为，计算机尚未对糖尿病教育的教学过程做出重大贡献，而且很少有人觉得自己为创造性地使用或开发计算机应用做好了充分准备。要提高计算机在支持患者教育方面的作用，将需要医疗机构和专业组织给予鼓励并展示计算机的功效。
