Comparing School-Based Sleep Interventions for Youth

This study is comparing two school-based programs to help young people aged 12-18 with sleep problems. One program is called TS-C-STEP, which is a type of cognitive behavioral sleep intervention. The other is Sleep Health Education (SHE), which provides general health education. The researchers want to see if TS-C-STEP is better at improving sleep quality than SHE, especially for groups who might face more challenges, like those from disadvantaged backgrounds or with other health conditions. They will measure changes in sleep quality using a tool called the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index over 14 months. To join, you need to be 12-18 years old, have a sleep health problem, and be able to participate in a classroom setting.

Study design
This study is comparing two different sleep interventions in a large group of 1320 participants. It is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive one of the two programs.
What's involved

Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants' sleep quality will be measured from the beginning of the study up to 14 months later.

What this trial measures

  • Change from baseline for total score sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.Baseline to 14 months

    A self-rated questionnaire which assesses sleep quality and disturbances over a 1-month time interval. The sum of scores yields one global score with a minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 21. A higher score indicates more self-reported sleep problems.
