Summary
Description
The SHUTi MIND study is an NIH-funded study at the University of Virginia and will test an online interactive program called Sleep Healthy Using the Internet for Older Adult Sufferers of Insomnia and Sleeplessness (SHUTi OASIS) on adults aged 65 and older who struggle with sleep and cognitive concerns for a 2-year period. The help offered by SHUTi OASIS program is based on interventions for insomnia developed over the past 20 years and tested in numerous scientific studies. Typically, this type of training is only available from psychologists and physicians specially trained in behavioral sleep medicine and only offered in weekly face-to-face sessions. SHUTi OASIS was created to make this kind of help available to more people through a convenient home-based program that can be accessed anytime via the Internet.
Study participation will take about 2 years with the majority of study hours occurring in the first three months. After a telephone screening, participants will complete a pre-assessment consisting of an online cognitive test, online questionnaire, and sleep diaries. After completing the pre-assessment, participants will be randomly assigned to either the experimental website or a control website. Participation will take a maximum of 2 hours per week for a nine-week period. After that, participants will complete follow-up assessments at 9 weeks, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 2 years to see how their participation has influenced their sleeping and cognitive functioning. Participants will be compensated for their time with up to $300 in gift cards for study completion.
