Abstract
Descriptive results support some association between the pharmacist-patient relationship and self-efficacy expectations, although whether this association lies in pharmacists providing education, social support, or both is not clear. Further research is needed to investigate this association to better elucidate the potential contribution of a pharmacist-patient relationship to patients' diabetes self-management. The pharmacist-patient relationship index developed for this study appears to provide a more comprehensive and sensitive measure compared with other indices, suggesting potential utility in future studies.
