简要总结
The current research aims to evaluate the adherence and efficacy of dCBTi with different types of coaching support.
详细描述
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the five conditions. C1: Sleep Hygiene and Self-Monitoring Control Condition; C2: dCBTi without coaching; C3; dCBTi with virtual coaching; C4: dCBTi with non-therapist coaching; C5: dCBTi with therapist coaching.
Question 1:
Does dCBTi work better than the active control?
Hypothesis 1:
Participants in C2, C3, C4, and C5 will have greater improvement in insomnia than those in C1.
