Co-designed Peer Support Prototypes for Adolescent Type 1 Diabetes

Supplementary material from a 2026 figshare publication details a co-design study for peer support interventions targeting adolescents with type 1 diabetes and their caregivers. The study produced 11 digital stories, generated 52 unique ideas, and resulted in six prototype designs. The work was authored by figshare admin karger and applies community-based participatory research and human-centered design methods.

Use Cases

• Analyze co-design process narratives in the DOCX file to understand participant engagement stages.
• Extract themes from the 11 digital stories to identify key challenges in adolescent diabetes management.
• Review the six Hackathon challenge statements to inform the development of new peer support frameworks.
• Study the six developed prototypes, such as those addressing school stigma, for intervention design benchmarking.

Strengths

• Provides detailed methodological documentation of a novel CBPR and HCD integration.
• Includes concrete outputs: 11 digital stories, 52 generated ideas, and six prototype designs.

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 44.1 KB, containing primarily a descriptive document.
• No raw participant data, survey results, or quantitative metrics are provided.
• Sample size is limited, involving seven adolescents and four caregivers in the initial stage.
