Cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia in university students delivered via videoconferencing groups: A pilot study.

Introduction: Sleep difficulties are common amongst university students and are associated with mental illness and reduced wellbeing. This paper reports a pilot study of Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) tailored specifically for university students. It was hypothesized that the intervention would be feasible, acceptable, and improve sleep, anxiety, depression, and wellbeing.

Preferences of University Students for a Psychological Intervention Designed to Improve Sleep: Focus Group Study.

Background: Many university students have difficulties with sleep; therefore, effective psychological treatments are needed. Most research on psychological treatments to improve sleep has been conducted with middle-aged and older adults, which means it is unclear whether existing psychological treatments are helpful for young adult university students.

Objective: This study aimed to discover university student preferences for a psychological intervention to improve sleep quality.
