The aim of this concept analysis was to clarify what is meant by family functioning in the context of diabetes self-management by assessing specific attributes, antecedents, and consequences. A concept analysis model by Walker and Avant was applied. The Identified attributes of family functioning in a diabetes self-management context Included problem-solving, communication, roles, affective responsiveness, affective involvement, and behavioral control.
