Research Abstract |
Sleep disturbance of Japanese undergraduates was significantly more serious than employees, especially in hypersomnia and insomnia. Oppositely, employees were more likely to complain about nightmare symptoms than undergraduates. The research data indicated both seriousness of sleep disturbance was stronger predicting factor of depression than stressors. We confirm the effectiveness of non-pharmacological treatment (Cognitive Behavior Therapy) for sleep disturbance. The CBT intervention (relaxation & cognitive restructuring) can positive effect to reduce symptoms of insomnia and nightmare from case studies and quasi-experimental design.
