Sleep Disturbance Clinical Trial
Official title:
Testing the Effects of the Calm App on Sleep, Mental Health, and Productivity Outcomes in Employees
The purpose of this study is to test the effects of using the Calm app + coaching concierge (one 20-min session) and/or Calm Coaching for sleep program on sleep, mental health, and work productivity outcomes in employees. Employees (N=5,000) will be randomized into one of two groups for 8-weeks.
Workplace stress is highly prevalent and is linked to poor health outcomes including depression and anxiety. Depression impacts a person's physical ability to complete job tasks about 20% of the time while reducing cognitive performance 35% of the time. Mental health issues are not often properly identified and less than half of people receive treatment. The Calm app is a mindfulness meditation mobile app and has been evidenced to reduce stress, improve sleep, and reduce anxiety/depressive symptoms in a range of populations (e.g., college students, cancer patients, sleep-disturbed adults). The Calm app provides daily, 10-minute, guided meditations grounded in mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and Vipassana meditation. Uniquely, the Calm app also offers "Sleep Stories", narrated fictional tales that use mindfulness- inspired techniques to help users sleep. However, the effects of the Calm app in employees among worksites has not yet been explored.
