Sleep Promotion Program for Teens with Sleep Issues and Depression
This study is testing a new program called the Sleep Promotion Program (SPP) for teenagers aged 12-18 who have trouble sleeping and also have depression. SPP helps teens get more sleep and keep a regular sleep schedule using two individual sessions and smartphone technology. It's being compared to a brief session on healthy sleep habits called Sleep Psychoeducation. Researchers want to see if SPP is practical and effective. Success will be measured by how practical, acceptable, and appropriate the intervention is, all measured around 8 weeks after the program starts. The study is currently unclear about its status and plans to enroll 100 participants.

What this trial measures
- Feasibility of Intervention MeasurePost-Intervention (~8 weeks)
The Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM) is a 4-item measure that assesses the feasibility of the intervention, each item is scored on a 1-5 likert scale (completely disagree to completely agree). Items can be evaluated individually or a scale can be created by averaging responses. Scale values range from 1-5.
- Acceptability of Intervention MeasurePost-Intervention (~8 weeks)
The Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) is a 4-item measure that assesses the acceptability of the intervention, each item is scored on a 1-5 likert scale (completely disagree to completely agree). Items can be evaluated individually or a scale can be created by averaging responses. Scale values range from 1-5.
- Intervention Appropriateness MeasurePost-Intervention (~8 weeks)
The Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM) is a 4-item measure that assesses the appropriateness of the intervention, each item is scored on a 1-5 likert scale (completely disagree to completely agree). Items can be evaluated individually or a scale can be created by averaging responses. Scale values range from 1-5.
- Clinical Global Impressions Scale - ImprovementPost-Intervention (~8 weeks)
This is a clinician rating of improvement in sleep and psychopathology. Clinicians rate domains of sleep health, psychiatric symptoms, and overall health on a range from 1 very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). A score of 0 indicates no assessment. Scores for each domain are reported individually.
- Patient Health Questionnaire - 9 - MChange Screening to Post-Intervention (~10 weeks)
This is a self-report measure of depressive symptoms. It consists of 9 items rated 0 (not at all) to 3 (nearly every day) over the past 2 weeks. Scores on those 9 items are summed to create a total score (0-27, higher score indicates greater depression).
