SLEEP-COPE: Sleep Intervention for Oppositional Children

This study, called SLEEP-COPE, is testing a special sleep program for children aged 8 to 12 who have both insomnia (trouble sleeping) and Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). The program, called SLEEP: COPE, uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) along with ways to help with noncompliance often seen in children with ODD. The goal is to see if this program can improve sleep for these children. Researchers will measure success by looking at daily sleep diaries filled out by both the child and parent over several weeks. This study plans to include 25 participants and is delivered through telehealth to make it easier to access.
