N2 - Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic disease requiring medical adherence. However, among adolescents, non-adherence rates may reach up to 75%. Satisfaction or frustration with psychological needs is a crucial factor in the motivation and management of health-related behaviors. This study aimed to examine the differences in good health practices and psychological and physical well-being among adolescents with and without T1D and the mediating role of satisfaction and frustration of psychological needs on the association between good health practices and well-being in this population. A total of 94 adolescents (42 with T1D, 52 healthy controls, mean age 14.83 ± 1.82 years) completed questionnaires assessing good health practices, satisfaction or frustration of psychological needs, and well-being. Adolescents with T1D reported lower levels of physical well-being compared to healthy controls. Satisfaction or frustration of psychological needs had an effect on good health practices and psychological and physical well-being among healthy controls. Among adolescents with T1D, satisfaction or frustration of psychological needs was related to psychological well-being and partially related to physical well-being, but not to good health practices. The results demonstrate that the satisfaction or frustration of psychological needs has a unique effect on health behaviors and well-being among adolescents with T1D. This calls for further examination of the underlying mechanisms involved in health-related behaviors and well-being among adolescents with T1D.
