Contents: The academic and social experiences of children with and without insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus were investigated. Measures included the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-III, the Peabody Individual Achievement Test-Revised, and a parent interview. Results indicated that children with diabetes scored lower on some cognitive and academic measures compared to children without diabetes, but their school and social life was not remarkably different. Few differences were found between children with early onset and late onset of diabetes. The findings suggest that poorer management of diabetes is associated with greater school absences, which in turn are associated with lower grades in school.
