description Introduction: Diabetes is a chronic metabolic syndrome and the most prevalent endocrine disorder. In addition to physical complications, it also leads to various mental and psychological challenges for patients. Consequently, contemporary treatments adopt a holistic approach that integrates both physiological and psychological care for these individuals. Therefore, the present study aims to determine the role of self-differentiation and mindfulness components in disordered eating behaviors among adolescents with diabetes.Method: This applied study included a sample of 88 adolescents with diabetes who were referred to a specialized diabetes clinic. The study adhered to established inclusion and exclusion criteria and utilized tests for disordered eating behaviors (Garner et al., 1982), self-differentiation (DSI) (Skorn and Friedlander, 1998), and mindfulness (Bauer et al., 2006) for participants aged 12 to 18 years. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (stepwise regression).Results: The results indicate that the linear combination of predictor variables associated with disordered eating behaviors exhibited multiple correlations (r = 0.471, p < 0.01). Self-differentiation (β = 0.191) and mindfulness (β = 0.188) were both significant at the p < 0.01 level.Discussion and conclusion: The results indicate that self-differentiation and mindfulness play a significant role in predicting disordered eating behaviors among adolescents with diabetes. Therefore, it is recommended that an educational program aimed at enhancing awareness and mindfulness in diabetic adolescents be implemented as an effective strategy for improving disordered eating behaviors.
