The Language Used Around Diabetes: A Qualitative Study Focusing on the Experience of People Living With Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes in Ireland

The initial interview guide developed by the primary researcher was circulated to the Diabetes Language Matters Ireland Working Group, which includes people living with diabetes, psychologists, dieticians and a consultant endocrinologist, all Ireland-based. Their feedback was incorporated across two rounds to produce the penultimate guide. This guide was then piloted by the primary researcher with a person living with type 1 diabetes; pacing adjustments were made to produce the final interview guide.
