About this study

Official title: The Effects of Leader Sleep Improvement on Leadership

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of sleep improvement in leaders on leader outcomes.

Read the detailed description

The investigators seek to extend the findings of a recent research which demonstrated that treating insomnia has several beneficial effects on employee work outcomes (Barnes, Miller, \& Bostock, in press). In the present study, the investigators propose that the treatment of leader insomnia would beneficially influence leadership, specifically abusive supervision, charismatic leadership, and laissez-faire leadership.

What participants receive

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

  • Online Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)Other

    CBT-I is a psychological treatment designed to break the patterns of maladaptive thinking and behavior that maintain insomnia. CBT-I includes a range of techniques including a behavioral component (stimulus control, sleep restriction, relaxation) combined with a cognitive component (managing sleep related worries, the racing mind and intrusive thoughts) and an educational (sleep hygiene) component.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  5. Emotional Exhaustion Scale

    Rate emotional exhaustion over the past 2 weeks. Each item is scored 1-5 (1 = Very slightly or not at all, 2 = A little, 3 = Moderately, 4 = Quite a bit, 5 = Extremely).
