The method of this research is descriptive correlational which identifies the relationship between research variables. The statistical population of this study included all diabetic women in Tehran, which is reported by the Association of Diabetes, which is 2800 people. The method of this research was randomly clustered and the number of sample groups according to Morgan table was 338 people. The Glasgow and Tubert Diabetes Self-Care Questionnaire (1994), the Christensen and Salavi Couples Pattern Patterns Questionnaire (1984) and the Healthy Anxiety Questionnaire for the Sickookis and Warwick (2002) Health Questionnaire. Multiple regression analysis and path analysis were used to analyze the data. The findings of the research indicate that the direct effect of health anxiety on self-care (0 117) is significant at the level of 0.05. The indirect effect of health anxiety on self-care (-0.21) is significant through a constructive interaction at the level of 0.01. Therefore, under the component of interacting constructive variable, communication patterns play the role of mediating between health anxiety and self-care. The results of the research showed that there is a relationship between self-care anxiety and mediation of family communication patterns in women with diabetes.
