While there is evidence that spouses can impact the self-management of adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus, less is known about the influence of the wider social network. This qualitative study explored the perceived impact of the family as well as friends and work colleagues on type 2 diabetes mellitus self-management. A total of 25 adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus participated in semi-structured interviews regarding their social experiences of living with diabetes. Deductive thematic analysis was applied to the data. Pre-existing themes of health-related social control and social support were identified in the wider social network, with additional themes of non-involvement and unintentional undermining also emerging.
虽然有证据表明配偶可以影响 2 型糖尿病患者的自我管理，但对于更广泛的社交网络的影响知之甚少。这项定性研究探讨了家庭以及朋友和同事对 2 型糖尿病自我管理的感知影响。共有 25 名 2 型糖尿病患者参加了关于他们与糖尿病共同生活的社交经历的半结构化访谈。对数据进行了演绎主题分析。在更广泛的社交网络中确定了与健康相关的社会控制和社会支持的现有主题，还出现了不参与和无意破坏的额外主题。
