Abstract: | Evaluated 20 patients who suffered from chronic insomnia and who completed all phases of a 1-yr treatment program. The treatment, which consisted of 5 weekly, 1-hr group sessions and a follow-up 1 mo later, provided education about sleep, instruction in relaxation techniques, stimulus control instructions, and training in sleep hygiene. Self-monitoring data collected by the Ss showed general improvement across a variety of sleep parameters. (9 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
