Well-being Promotion and Sleep Hygiene Education to Improve Sleep Quality in a Non-clinical Population of Distressed Adults Reporting Poor Sleep: A Pilot Parallel-arm, Randomized Controlled Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Well-Being Intervention and Sleep Hygiene for Poor Quality Sleep. Completed, enrolled 76 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The overall goal of this project is to evaluate the effect of enhanced psychological well-being on sleep quality. This study will demonstrate whether combining an intervention designed to promote psychological well-being with sleep hygiene education improves sleep quality in a non-clinical population of distressed adults reporting poor sleep in the absence of a diagnosed sleep disorder. The investigators expect an intervention combining elements of psychological well-being and sleep hygiene education to result in significant improvements in sleep quality measures from baseline to post-intervention, and greater improvements in sleep quality measures at post-intervention as compared with sleep hygiene education alone.

Timeline
Interventions
The main aim of the well-being intervention is to reduce levels of distress through the promotion of psychological well-being. Key components of the intervention are self-monitoring of instances of well-being and what leads to their interruption (i.e., thoughts and behaviors), cognitive restructuring of interfering thoughts, and homework assignments to address dysfunctional behaviors and increase exposure to optimal experiences. Participants will become aware of their functioning based on six different dimensions of psychological well-being (i.e., self-acceptance, positive relations with others, autonomy, environmental mastery, purpose in life, and personal growth), and will be guided in finding a balance within each dimension.
The main aim of sleep hygiene education is to provide participants with a set of behavioral and environmental recommendations intended to promote healthy sleep. During the intervention, participants will become aware of their own sleep patterns, will learn about healthy sleep habits, and will be encouraged to follow a set of recommendations to improve their sleep. Key components of the intervention are sleep hygiene and education.
