Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to develop and test the intervention program to help manage parental thoughts in parents with child sleep problems.

Clinical Trial Description

Pediatric sleep problems are common and persistent, which result in negative outcomes without appropriate intervention. Behavioral sleep interventions (BSI) are evidence-based sleep training methods for improving pediatric sleep. However, parental factors (e.g., parental dysfunctional beliefs about child sleep) can interfere with the implementation of BSI. For example, being too worried or having misperceptions about infant sleep may interfere with the parent's ability to successfully and persistently implement BSIs. Therefore, parental thoughts and beliefs should be considered as an important target in the context of pediatric sleep interventions. This study aims to develop a cognitive intervention that identifies and targets parental misperceptions about child's sleep, and test the efficacy of the intervention through a randomized controlled trial. ;
