Primary outcomes

  1. Participant Preference Between 2 Injection Devices Based on Global Preference Item

    Time frame: Day 1

    Preference of injection device was assessed by questionnaire which asks, "Overall, which device do you prefer?" The Prescott test will be run to examine if a statistically significant difference in preference between the devices exits, while controlling for order effects and taking into account the neutral responses.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Participant Preference Between 2 Injection Devices Based on Ease of Use

    Time frame: Day 1

    Participants responded to the Diabetes Injection Device - Preference Questionnaire (DID-PQ), Item 9 (ease of use) to compare the dulaglutide and semaglutide devices with regard to ease. Response options of "strongly prefer" and "prefer" were combined for each device, resulting in 3 categories: prefer dulaglutide, prefer semaglutide, and no preference. The Prescott test will be run to examine if a statistically significant difference in preference between the devices exists while, controlling for order effects.
