Approximately 100 young adults will complete psychological assessments and provide information on method of insulin administration, frequency of hypoglycemia, and frequency of self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG).  Recent HbA1c results will be obtained from medical records.  Analyses will be conducted to determine relationships between psychological distress, metabolic control, hypoglycemia, and SMBG.
