Abstract
Three 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 estimation. The procedure resulted in a large increase in accuracy of blood glucose level estimation. The implications of the findings are discussed.Keywords
