Abstract: The proceedings of a 1981 conference on childhood and adolescent diabetes and its psychological effects, covers 41 technical papers for medical professionals and psychologists arranged under 4 general themes: 1) emotional factors in the diabetic child; 2) the family environment and diabetic children; 3) psychological factors affecting diabetic control; 4) and psycholigical considerations in treating child diabetics (including the patient-doctor relationship, the multidisciplinary team for diabetes control and therapy, and group counselling strategies). Discussion sessions follow the technical papers under each of the 4 general themes. The papers describe practical experience and research results gathered internationally in an effort to understand the psychological implications of diabetes in children, adolescents, and young adults, and to apply this understanding to improving the treatment of such patients.
