| dc.description.abstract | Behavioral insomnia is highly prevalent, affecting approximately 25% of children. It
involves difficulties initiating and maintaining sleep and frequently results in
inadequate sleep, leading to an array of negative effects for both the child and the
child's family. In this paper, we describe a variety of empirically supported
behavioral interventions for insomnia from infancy through adolescence. We explore how
biological, cognitive, and psychosocial developmental changes contribute to behavioral
insomnia and how these changes may affect sleep and behavioral interventions. We also
discuss barriers that prevent families from accessing interventions, including why many
empirically-supported behavioral interventions are overlooked by health care
providers. | en_US |
