Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: CBT-I online group

Twelve eligible participants will meet weekly for 6 weeks while undergoing the CBT-I program. At the end of each weekly session, participants will complete a survey reviewing the acceptability of undergoing insomnia treatment in an internet-based small-group setting.

6 sessions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Attendance [6 weeks]

    Main feasibility metric, recorded as number of sessions successfully attended. Participants would need to attend at least 4 sessions of the CBT-I sessions. Therefore, attendance among all participants must be 67% or greater to be considered feasible. A session must be attended for at least 50% of the time or will be counted as missed.

  2. Acceptability [24 weeks]

    A three-question survey at the end of each session. Question 1 is yes/no, questions 2 and 3 are write in. At the end of the program, a longer acceptability survey will be conducted. If a participant's response to question 1 indicates acceptability for a given session, that session will be deemed 'acceptable'. If 50% or more of participants rated the session as acceptable, then that session will be rated as acceptable.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Insomnia symptoms [24 weeks]

    Measured by Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) with scale range of 0 to 27, higher numbers indicating more severe insomnia

  2. Changes in quality of life symptoms [24 weeks]

    Measured by the 7-item Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT-G7) Assessment, with likhert scales from 0-4 and higher numbers indicating more severe symptoms

  3. Sleep Quality [24 weeks]

    Measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), score of 0-21 points, higher score indicating more severe difficulty sleeping.
