This research employed a one-group pre-test post-test design to investigate the effects of a self-management support program on self-management behaviors for diabetes prevention among individuals at risk. A sample of 27 at-risk individuals was proportionally allocated from each healthcare service unit. The intervention tool was a self-management support program specifically designed for diabetes prevention in this at-risk group. Data collection instruments included a manual, a diabetes knowledge assessment, and a self-management behavior assessment. The content validity indices were 1.00, 1.00, and 0.95, respectively. The reliability of the diabetes knowledge assessment, using the Kuder-Richardson Formula 20 (KR-20), was 0.83, and the self-management behavior assessment had a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.86. The program was implemented with the sample group for 12 weeks. Data were analyzed using percentages, means, standard deviations, and paired t-tests.
The results showed that self-management behaviors of the sample group after receiving the program were significantly higher than before receiving the program at a statistically significant level of .05 (t = -11.068), and the blood sugar levels of the sample group after receiving the program were significantly lower than before receiving the program at a statistically significant level of .05 (t = 3.935). Therefore, health personnel should use this program in the care of individuals at risk of diabetes to prevent the onset of diabetes and improve their quality of life.
