The quantitative approach was used, using the Quality-of-life Scale, Motivation for Achievement Scale, and Family Support Scale. The results showed that family support, motivation for achievement, and physical activities are positively related to the quality of life and its dimensions for university students with diabetes. It also contributes to predicting the quality of their life with its fields in varying proportions.
