Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and insomnia, and their parent(s) will undergo 4 sessions of behavioral therapy for sleep problems followed by 4 bimonthly booster sessions. Children and their families will be randomly assigned to one of three conditions: cognitive behavioral therapy (in-person), cognitive behavioral therapy (remote), or behavioral therapy (remote). Arousal will be measured through heart-rate variability. Sleep and secondary outcomes (child daytime behavior, parent sleep) will be collected at baseline (weeks 1-2 before starting the treatment), post-treatment (weeks 6-8 from baseline), 6-month follow-up, and 12-month follow-up.
Children with autism often have difficulties falling and staying asleep at night. Those sleep difficulties can contribute to daytime problems with irritability, learning, and behavior. Parents are often stressed about their child's sleep difficulties and as a result, their sleep can suffer as well. Treatment that focuses on establishing behaviors and routines that help reduce arousal and support good sleep are helpful for improving the sleep of children without autism, but have not yet been tested in children with autism.
Previous studies have indicated that distance can make it difficult for families to participate in treatment. As such, we will conduct treatment remotely for two of treatment arms. Having remote versions of the treatment can expand the number of children and families that are able to receive these promising treatments. This may be particularly important for children with ASD living in rural and underserved areas as well as those in military families that may not have access to a healthcare provider with training in behavioral sleep treatments.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| In-person CBT for insomnia in children with autism | Experimental | In-person cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for insomnia in children with autism will be conducted at the Thompson Center. In-person treatment will consist of four 50-minute, individually administered sessions and four bi-monthly, 20-minute telephone boosters. Using a flexible, case conceptualization approach, the therapist will adapt the treatment to parent and child characteristics (i.e., verbal skills, development) and family situation/dynamics - promoting optimal efficacy and enhancing broad clinical applicability. Module administration order will be tailored to prioritize each child/family's most pressing sleep concerns based on the clinical interview. |
|
| Remote CBT for insomnia in children with autism | Experimental | Remote/videoconferenced cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for insomnia in children with autism will be conducted from home (families)/Thompson Center (therapist). Remote treatment will consist of four 50-minute, individually administered sessions and four bi-monthly, 20-minute telephone boosters. Using a flexible, case conceptualization approach, the therapist will adapt the treatment to parent and child characteristics (i.e., verbal skills, development) and family situation/dynamics - promoting optimal efficacy and enhancing broad clinical applicability. Module administration order will be tailored to prioritize each child/family's most pressing sleep concerns based on the clinical interview. |
|
| Remote behavioral SHARE for insomnia in children with autism | Experimental | Remote/videoconferenced behavioral sleep hygiene and related education (SHARE) for insomnia in children with autism will be conducted from home (families)/Thompson Center (therapist). Remote treatment will consist of four 50-minute, individually administered sessions and four bi-monthly, 20-minute telephone boosters. Using a flexible, case conceptualization approach, the therapist will adapt the treatment to parent and child characteristics (i.e., verbal skills, development) and family situation/dynamics - promoting optimal efficacy and enhancing broad clinical applicability. Module administration order will be tailored to prioritize each child/family's most pressing sleep and related health related concerns/interests. |
