Abstract
The Diabetes Obstacles Questionnaire (DOQ) is designed for completion by people who have Type 2 diabetes.
There are 8 SCALES, with several ITEMS in each scale. Each scale deals with one topic and comprises a number of items. Each item deals with one obstacle in that topic. Each item should be answered by ticking one box.
For an individual who has Type 2 diabetes, not all scales may be relevant, so a selection of which scales to use can be made either by the person, or by his or her clinician. Having selected the scales to be used, all items on a scale should be answered.
The items are deliberately all related to obstacles and so may seem to have a negative tone to them. The items are designed to identify the obstacles for an individual person. The obstacles are those items for which the respondent has ticked the box for Agree or Strongly Agree.
In a clinical setting this could then lead to the obstacles being addressed. In a research setting, the scales may be used to demonstrate change in obstacles, perhaps due to an intervention intended to reduce obstacles.
