| Abstract: | Two insulin-dependent diabetic adults were exposed to a blood glucose discrimination training program. Following baseline, during which subjects estimated their blood glucose levels twice daily, subjects received immediate feedback regarding the accuracy of their estimates. The procedure resulted in a large increase in accuracy of blood glucose level estimation. The implications of the findings were discussed.The authors thank Joe Quattrini, Maria Bohnert, Jenifer Dale, Kathy Cogan, and Ruth Tarlow for their help in conducting this study.
