Abstract

We examined support for type 1 diabetes in casual versus committed romantic relationships and links to blood glucose, self-care, and affect in 101 young adults (Mage 18.8). Individuals provided survey and daily measures of support and blood glucose and affect during a 14-day diary period. Survey data indicated individuals viewed partners as helpful, with partners in committed relationships rated more helpful than those in casual relationships. Daily assessments indicated partners were seen as only moderately helpful. Individuals in committed relationships discussed diabetes with partners on more diary days than those in casual relationships. When individuals in any relationship type experienced more helpful partner support than their average, they reported higher positive and lower negative affect. However, those in casual relationships also experienced more negative affect and higher mean blood glucose the next day. Results suggest tradeoffs between immediate benefits and subsequent costs of partner support to adults in casual relationships.

All analyses in the present study were repeated while omitting PWD who lived with their partners (Aim 1 analyses) or controlling for cohabitation (Aim 2 & 3 multilevel models). Results remained unchanged, suggesting the observed effects were not due to cohabitation; see Roberson et al. (2017). Similarly, all multilevel models were repeated including gender as a potential moderator; gender was not found to moderate any effects. Finally, due to the possibility that PWD who indicated they were “dating but not in a committed relationship” may be dating multiple persons simultaneously or have only one partner but no formally-defined relationship, additional analyses were performed on the advice of an anonymous reviewer. In these models, which retained only PWD who indicated having a specific romantic partner (n = 78), the pattern of results remained intact.
