	W-BQ12 (Japanese)
	Negative Well-being	Energy	Positive Well-being	General Well-being (total)
Diabetes control
HbA11	0.01	-0.04	0.01	-0.02
Frequency of hypoglycaemia	0.17**	-0.11*	-0.11*	-0.16**
Severity of hypoglycaemia	0.18**	-0.17**	-0.14**	-0.20**
Severity × frequency of hypoglycaemia	0.19**	-0.17**	-0.15**	-0.21**
DTSQ
Treatment Satisfaction	-0.25**	0.32**	0.35**	0.38**
Perceived Hyperglycaemia	0.22**	-0.31**	-0.13**	-0.28**
Perceived Hypoglycaemia	0.30**	-0.25**	-0.12*	-0.29**

¹Maximum N = 425; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; DTSQ = Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire Treatment Satisfaction = items 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 summed where a higher score = greater satisfaction; Perceived Hyperglycaemia where a higher score = greater perceived frequency of hyperglycaemia; Perceived Hypoglycaemia where a higher score = a greater perceived frequency of hypoglycaemia.
