Interactive effect of age of diabetes onset and global mean HbA1c on visual-spatial ability. The relationships between Spatial Relations task performance, age of diabetes onset, and global mean HbA1c, which were all continuous variables in our HLM analyses, are modeled for individuals who were diagnosed with T1DM at an age that was one standard deviation younger than the mean age of diabetes onset, at the mean age of diabetes onset, and at an age that was one standard deviation older than the mean age of diabetes onset to illustrate the significant age of diabetes onset × global mean HbA1c interaction for the Spatial Relations task. There was a stronger negative relationship between global mean HbA1c and Spatial Relations task performance for youth with earlier compared to later onset diabetes. The between-person main effect of age of diabetes onset was not significant.
