Analysis of data involved undertaking an abductive reasoning approach in response to emerging themes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Participants discussed not only their concerns about insulin therapy, but also their views and beliefs about the necessity of insulin. Their attitudes to insulin treatment could be mapped into four main typologies. These fitted with an attitudinal scale based on the Necessity\u2010Concerns Framework described in the medication adherence literature, comprising four attitudes: accepting, sceptical, ambivalent and indifferent. Decisions about accepting insulin involved balancing concerns (such as needle size) against the perceived necessity of insulin (generally, inadequacy of oral medication). The South Asian and white participants had similar concerns, but these were sometimes greater in South Asian participants, because of the influence of negative views and experiences of other insulin users.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>When discussing insulin with people with Type 2 diabetes, healthcare providers need to ensure that they explore and contribute to patients\u2019 understanding and interpretation of the necessity of insulin as well as discussing their concerns. Furthermore, they should be aware of how an individual's social context can influence his\/her perceptions about the necessity of insulin as well as their concerns, and that this influence may be greater in some South Asian populations.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/dme.12648","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,11,29]],"date-time":"2014-11-29T13:32:52Z","timestamp":1417267972000},"page":"635-644","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Concerns and perceptions about necessity in relation to insulin therapy in an ethnically diverse <scp>UK<\/scp> population with Type 2 diabetes: a qualitative study focusing mainly on people of South Asian origin"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"N.","family":"Patel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Diabetes Research Centre University of Leicester Leicester UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.
