Do you have type 2 diabetes and are you aged 18+?

My name is Kathy Hart and I am an MSc Psychology (conversion) student at UCLan. I am looking for participants for my final major project which will explore attitudes towards type 2 diabetes. It will involve doing 2 short questionnaires and watching a short film. All responses are anonymous, and participation will not take any longer than 15 minutes. Please just click on the link below if you'd be willing to take part. Thank you very much in advance. “this study has been approved by @josh DUK”.

This has been approved. Please help if you can.
 
Done. Very interesting little video, it could have been me pre and post diabetes (I am the good one now!)
 
Yup just completed it.
 
That was very interesting. I was expecting a witch to jump out at me, that happened back in the day and I near fell off my computer chair!

I tried to fill in the survey but I have got stuck on the first question about diabetes.

You haven't got a choice for I manage my diabetes with diet.

I have been managing my diabetes for two years by diet alone - no tablets and no exercise.
I think you have a bit of a preconception about diabetes yourself already before even gathering data! Oops.

I chose the one with diet, exercise and/or tablets but it isn't really correct for me.

I apologise for that I should have worded it clearer. Both my parents are diabetic so I do have some knowledge it was just a wording issue. What I meant in that option was if you manage your diabetes by diet or exercise or tablets....I'm trying to compare attitudes between people with different treatment intensities. I will edit it shortly if you would consider taking it again I would be very grateful.

I finished it but I'm happy to redo it if you would like.
 
Done
 
Completed. At present I manage my diabetes by diet and exercise. Maybe that should have been an option without the medication? Good luck with your research 🙂

Thank you very much I really appreciate it. Yes I think I maybe should have formatted that question a little differently...hopefully I’ll be going on to do a PHD so I’ll put all this experience to good use for future research!
 
Done
 
Hello all, Happy Easter!
I'm really short of male participants for this study into attitudes towards type 2 diabetes....so if there are any males out there with type 2 diabetes who would be willing to spend 10 minutes on an anonymous survey I'd be massively grateful. Please click on the link in the original post. Thank you in advance
