Evaluation of Participants' Metabolic Variables (Body Mass Index (BMI) |
The metabolic variables (Body Mass Index) of the individuals in the experimental and control groups were taken from hospital records and evaluated. With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, the BMI values of individuals in both the experimental and control groups were re-evaluated from the hospital records. |

Evaluation of Participants' Metabolic Variables ( Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS)) |
The metabolic variables (Fasting Blood Sugar) of the individuals in the experimental and control groups were evaluated by taking them from the hospital records. With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, the FBC values of individuals in both the experimental and control groups were re-evaluated from the hospital records. |

Evaluation of Participants' Metabolic Variables (High Density Lipoprotein (HDL)) |
The metabolic variables (High Density Lipoprotein) of the individuals in the experimental and control groups were evaluated from hospital records. With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, HDL values of individuals in both the experimental and control groups were re-evaluated from hospital records. |

Evaluation of Participants' Metabolic Variables (Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL)) |
The metabolic variables (Low Density Lipoprotein) of the individuals in the experimental and control groups were evaluated from hospital records. With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, the LDL values of individuals in both the experimental and control groups were re-evaluated from the hospital records. |

Evaluation of Participants' Metabolic Variables (HgA1C) |
HgA1C, one of the metabolic variables of the individuals in the experimental and control groups, was taken from hospital records and evaluated. With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, HgA1C values of individuals in both the experimental and control groups were re-evaluated from hospital records. |

Evaluation of Participants' Self-Management of Insulin Therapy |
Insulin therapy self-management of individuals in the experimental and control groups was evaluated with the "Insulin Therapy Self-Management Scale". With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, the insulin therapy self-management of individuals in both the experimental and control groups was re-evaluated with the "Insulin Therapy Self-Management Scale". "Insulin Therapy Self-Management Scale" is a scale used to evaluate the knowledge-skill levels and positive-negative attitudes of individuals with diabetes towards insulin therapy. The increase in the scores obtained in all sub-dimensions indicates that the self-management levels in that dimension increase. |

Evaluation of Participants' Health Belief Attitudes and Behaviors |
The health belief attitudes and behaviors of the individuals in the experimental and control groups were evaluated with the "Health Belief Model Scale". With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, the health belief attitudes and behaviors of individuals in both the experimental and control groups were re-evaluated using the "Health Belief Model Scale". The scale used to evaluate the health belief attitudes and health behaviors of individuals with diabetes consists of a total of 33 items. If the score obtained from the scale is four and above, it indicates positive health belief, and if it is less than four, it indicates negative health belief. |

Evaluation of Participants' Insulin Injection Administration Skill Levels |
The insulin injection application skill levels of the individuals in the experimental and control groups were evaluated with the "Insulin Injection Skill Observation Form" prepared by the researcher in line with the literature. With the developed web-based mobile "Insulin Guide" application, the experimental group was trained for three months. No intervention was made in the control group. Three months later, the insulin injection skill levels of both the experimental and control groups were re-evaluated with the "Insulin Injection Skill Observation Form". "Insulin Injection Skill Observation Form" was developed with the aim of objectively evaluating insulin injection application performance. It consists of 21 items in total. If the patient did the application wrong, he/she gets 0 points, if he/she did it incompletely, he/she gets 1 point, and if he/she did it completely, he/she gets 2 points. The higher the average score, the higher will be their insulin injection skill level. |
