 Researchers from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in The Netherlands explored whether self-help could offer an inexpensive and more accessible alternative to face-to-face treatment, comparing non-pharmacological therapies only.
Ten studies with a total of 1000 subjects were included. The self-help
style of intervention was found to improve sleep efficiency (d=0.42;
p<0.05), sleep onset latency (d=0.29; p<0.05), waking after sleep
onset (d=0.44; p<0.05) and sleep quality (d=0.33; p<0.05) but not
total sleep time (d=0.02; p>0.05). |
