Apathy and type 2 diabetes among American Indians: exploring the protective effects of traditional cultural involvement.
In this study researchers examined relationships between traditional cultural factors, apathy, and health-related outcomes among a sample of American Indian adults with type 2 diabetes. Their model revealed significant direct effects from cultural participation to apathy, and apathy to both health-related outcomes. Cultural participation had a negative indirect effect through apathy on high blood sugar and positive indirect effects on health-related quality of life.
