SLEEP-COPE: Sleep Intervention for Oppositional Children

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Oppositional Defiant Disorder
Insomnia Chronic
Registration Number
NCT06350292
Lead Sponsor
University of South Florida
Brief Summary

Children with Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) are at risk for insomnia, arousal dysfunction, mood problems, and noncompliance. Cognitive behavioral treatment for insomnia (CBT-I) holds promise for improving insomnia and related concerns. Telehealth delivery will reduce the burden of in-person sessions, particularly in areas where there is low mental healthcare access. Telehealth CBT-I is efficacious in adults and children but has not been tested in children with ODD. The proposed trial is the next logical step - development and iterative testing of SLEEP-COPE, a brief dyadic telehealth CBT-I for children with ODD and their parents.
