Description

This study will be conducted a single-group pre-test and post-test design, aiming to recruit 80 subjects who will undergo a four-week BBTi intervention. Participants will be selected from sleep counseling patients referred by sleep specialists. Inclusion criteria include: 1) individuals aged 40 years and above; 2) experiencing sleep disturbances; 3) willing to participate in the research project and provide informed consent. Cognitive impairment will exclude. The intervention consists of four weeks of BBTi. During the first week, participants will receive face-to-face sleep assessments and sleep hygiene education. In the second week, a phone interview will be conducted to assess the patient's progress and provide appropriate relaxation techniques. Unsatisfactory responses to sleep restriction therapy or stimulation control methods will be addressed through face-to-face interviews in the third week. The fourth week will involve an overall review and evaluation conducted via a telephone interview.
