The current study aims to reveal the relationship between health locus of control and self-management of the disease in individuals with diabetes in the city of Batna.

the researchers used the descriptive correlational approach on an intentional sample of 85 diabetic patients of both sexes.

this study relied on the following measures: the self-management scale "DMSQ" prepared by (Scmitt & al, 2013) and translated by researcher Dhiab Ahlam (2023), the health locus of control scale prepared by (Wallston, 1978) translated by researcher Nour el-Din Jabali.

the current study reached the following results: - the sample of diabetics was characterized by an internal locus of control, as the average internal control reached 23,632, while external control due to the influence of others reached 22,459, while the average external control due to luck was the lowest level at 17,241.

diabetics are characterized by a low level of self-management of the disease.

- there are statistically significant differences in health locus of control according to the gender variable in favor of females, and there are no statistically significant differences in the level of self-management of the disease attributable to the gender factor among diabetic patients.

- there are no statistically significant differences in health locus of control and the level of diabetes self-management due to the factor of educational level (university / non-university).

- there is no statistically significant relationship between health locus of control and self-management.
