Trial summary

The goal is to adapt and refine an innovative, developmentally-appropriate universal health promotion intervention to reduce insufficient sleep among adolescents aged 14 to 16, while engaging teens in the adaptation process to maximize the relevance, appeal, and effectiveness of the program for diverse school settings.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 13 to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Schools: Only general education high schools, not "newcomer" schools that target immigrants with limited English ability. Our rationale is that we need students to read and understand English well enough to complete our study measures and understand the intervention.
  • Classes: After the selection of schools, we will select classes that are representative of the school, insofar as they do not reflect Advanced Placement or remedial classes and utilize similar criteria for admission to the classes (e.g. health, advisory) so that we minimize differences between the classes in the study.
  • Students: All participants must receive parental consent, provide their own consent, and must have sufficient English language ability

Who cannot join

  • We propose no exclusion criteria for students who receive parental consent, provide their own assent, and have sufficient English language ability.

About this study

The goal is to adapt and refine an innovative, developmentally-appropriate universal health promotion intervention to reduce insufficient sleep among adolescents aged 14 to 16, while engaging teens in the adaptation process to maximize the relevance, appeal, and effectiveness of the program for diverse school settings.

Read the detailed description

The goal is to adapt and refine an innovative, developmentally-appropriate universal health promotion intervention to reduce insufficient sleep among adolescents aged 14 to 16, while engaging teens in the adaptation process to maximize the relevance, appeal, and effectiveness of the program for diverse school settings.

The investigators aim to conduct a pilot feasibility randomized controlled trial (RCT) among adolescents (n = 300) who will be randomized to Sleep Fitness (SF) or Sleep Education (SE) to obtain effect size estimates in preparation for a larger scale intervention study. This pilot trial is designed to obtain preliminary data for the following hypotheses:

SF, compared to SE, will produce greater pre-post improvement in sleep after treatment and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources).

SF, compared to SE, will produce greater pre-post reductions in substance use after treatment and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources).

SF, compared to SE, will produce greater pre-post improvement on selected mental health outcomes (anxiety, depression) after treatment and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sleep Fitness InterventionBehavioural

    The intervention consists of 5-7 sessions. Each session includes interactive and small group discussions. The intervention also includes lessons on sleep science, behavior change strategies, and one-on-one motivational interviews on behavior change motivation.

Study groups in NCT02463188
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Sleep Fitness InterventionExperimentalThe intervention consists of 5-7 sessions on sleep science, the connection between sleep and substance use, behavior change strategies, and motivation to change behavior.
Receives: Behavioral: Sleep Fitness Intervention
Psychoeducation (PE)No interventionThe control classes will receive an 1-session psycho-educational (PE) intervention that provides information on sleep but does not provide guidance for implementing behavior change and does not explicitly teach about sleep's relationship to substance use.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Primary Sleep

    Sleep Diary 1 Week: Total sleep time (Average of weeknights)

    Measured: Change from baseline to post-intervention, which will be conducted between 5 and 8 weeks after the baseline assessment, and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources)

  2. Primary Substance Use

    Measures from Monitoring the Future: 30-day use

    Measured: Change from baseline to post-intervention, which will be conducted between 5 and 8 weeks after the baseline assessment, and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Depressive Symptoms

    Center for Epidemiologic Studies- Depression

    Measured: Change from baseline to post-intervention, which will be conducted between 5 and 8 weeks after the baseline assessment, and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources)

  2. Anxiety Symptoms

    Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale

    Measured: Change from baseline to post-intervention, which will be conducted between 5 and 8 weeks after the baseline assessment, and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sleep Fitness Intervention in people with Sleep and Substance Use, run by University of California, Berkeley at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Sleep (time frame: Change from baseline to post-intervention, which will be conducted between 5 and 8 weeks after the baseline assessment, and at 6 month follow-up (with the possibility of a 12 month follow-up for a subset of participants, depending on resources)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jul 2017.
