Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study evaluates whether increasing sleep duration can increase neural and behavioral response to rewards and decrease depressive symptoms in 18- to 22-year-old women with insufficient sleep and depressive symptoms.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Depressive symptoms [1 week]

    Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale score. The CESD-R is a 20-item measure of the frequency of depressive symptoms, with each item rated on a scale from 0 (not at all or less than one day) to 5 (nearly every day). Total scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater number and frequency of depressive symptoms.

  2. Reward-related brain function [1 week]

    BOLD fMRI response during Reward Guessing Task

  3. Sleep duration [1 week]

    Mean actigraphy-measured sleep duration

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Positive affect [1 week]

    International Positive and Negative Affect Scale Short Form - Positive Affect score. The I-PANAS-SF is a 10-item scale that asks participants to rate the extent to which 5 positive and 5 negative adjectives describe them on a scale of 1 (never) to 5 (always). Scores for each positive adjective are summed to produce a Positive Affect (PA) score ranging from 5 to 25, with higher scores indicating more positive affect.

  2. Negative affect [1 week]

    International Positive and Negative Affect Scale Short Form - Negative Affect score. The I-PANAS-SF is a 10-item scale that asks participants to rate the extent to which 5 positive and 5 negative adjectives describe them on a scale of 1 (never) to 5 (always). Scores for each negative adjective are summed to produce a Negative Affect (PA) score ranging from 5 to 25, with higher scores indicating more negative affect.

  3. Reward effort [1 week]

    Effort Expenditure for Rewards Task score

  4. Reward-related functional connectivity [1 week]

    BOLD fMRI psychophysiological striatal-medial prefrontal cortex interaction
