Methods: Children with type 1 diabetes and their parents participated in the study. Development of a methodologically designed scale was conducted to investigate insulin treatment self-management of children with type 1 diabetes. Results: A total of 331 children and their parents were recruited. Children and parents completed the data collection tools by themselves. The final scale had two subscales; one was related to cognitive and behavioural expressions regarding insulin treatment (self-efficacy) and the other to emotional aspects of self-maagement of insulin treatment (emotional impacts). The scale was shown to be valid and reliable. Conclusion: This study was a valid and reliable scale for measuring insulin treatment self-management in children with type 1 diabetes. Thus can be used to assess insulin treatment self-management in children with type 1 diabetes and their parents as well as a tool for effective nursing care. © 2019 by Turkish Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes Society.EnglishAll Open Access; Gold Open Access; Green Open AccessAdolescentBiomarkersBlood GlucoseChildChild, PreschoolDiabetes Mellitus, Type 1FemaleFollow-Up StudiesGlycated Hemoglobin AHumansHypoglycemic AgentsInfantInsulinMaleParentsPrognosisSelf EfficacySelf-ManagementSurveys and QuestionnairesTurkeyhemoglobin A1cinsulinantidiabetic agentbiological markerglycosylated hemoglobinhemoglobin A1c protein, humaninsulinadolescentArticlechildcontent validitycorrelation analysisemotionface validityfemalehumaninsulin dependent diabetes mellitusLikert scalemajor clinical studymalereliabilitysample sizeschool childself carebloodchild parent relationfollow upglucose blood levelinfantinsulin dependent diabetes mellituspreschool childprognosispsychologyquestionnaireself careself conceptturkey (bird)The development and validation of a Turkish insulin treatment self-management scale child form (ages 8-18) and parent formArticle10.4274/jcrpe.galenos.2019.2019.0026
