Overview
Brief Summary
This pilot study will test acceptability and feasibility of a sleep extension intervention in community dwelling, short sleeping, racially/ethnically diverse middle aged adults with Metabolic Syndrome (METs). Baseline sleep habits will be assessed and used to guide individualized strategies to extend sleep. A 1-group pre-test, post-test study design will test the efficacy of this 18 week study (2 weeks of baseline data collection, 1 week of study intervention planning, 12 weeks of sleep intervention planning, 12 weeks of sleep intervention delivery, final follow up 3 weeks after last day of the 12 week intervention) on sleep duration, MetS factors (waist circumference, blood pressure, fasting glucose, trigycerides, HDL-c), MetS risk behaviors (poor affective well-being, fatigue) and self regulation. Socio-ecological barriers and facilitators to the intervention will be identified using a quantitative and qualitative approach.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Measure of acceptability Post Intervention evaluated by the percentage of participants rating SASI as acceptable, neutral, unacceptable
Time Frame: 4 Months
Acceptable (overall acceptability survey scores greater than 21), neutral (overall acceptability survey scores equal to 21), and unacceptable (overall acceptability survey scores less than 21) at each of two time points (pre- intervention and post intervention).
Measure of acceptability Pre-Intervention evaluated by the percentage of participants rating SASI as acceptable, neutral, unacceptable
Time Frame: 0 Months
Acceptable (overall acceptability survey scores greater than 21), neutral (overall acceptability survey scores equal to 21), and unacceptable (overall acceptability survey scores less than 21) at each of two time points
