Summary

The purpose of the project is to improve the sleep quality and sleep duration of post 9/11 veterans seeking college degrees. Preliminary research findings within CSU's New Start for Student Veterans program indicate veterans with service-related injuries report difficulties with sleep quality and duration. The REST program will recruit 24 college veterans and engage them in a seven-week multi component sleep improvement program using evidence-based educational and behavioral change supports that are considered best practice for improving sleep quality. The investigators' scientific objectives in this application are to establish the efficacy of a group-based sleep education and sleep-skills intervention to improve sleep quality and duration, and to advance understanding of relationships between participants' sleep-related knowledge and behaviors associated with improved sleep quality and duration in veterans with service-related injuries in college. The investigators will initially engage 8 participants to establish treatment fidelity and participant satisfaction of the 7-week group intervention. This will be followed by engaging 16 additional participants in the 7-week group intervention, 8 will be randomly placed as wait-list controls and then receive the intervention. The 7-week group intervention will take place within the CSU Occupational Therapy Department, and all assessments will be completed using a web-based survey.
