The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the initial efficacy of a reinforcement intervention to enhance physical activity levels in sedentary adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The intervention will reinforce patients for meeting physical activity goals, with escalating reinforcers provided when patients achieve continuous weeks of meeting goals. A 12-week trial will be conducted in which 60 patients will be randomized to: (1) standard care or (2) standard care plus reinforcement.
