The objective of the proposed study is to tailor a sleep health enhancement intervention to older adults and assess preliminary efficacy on reducing frailty in older adults. This pilot study will be conducted in two stages. In the treatment development stage, we will recruit n=10 older individuals age ≥65 with poor sleep health (≤ 7 on the Ru-SATED self-report questionnaire) to assess acceptability and tailor the sleep health enhancement intervention for older adults. In the pilot study stage to assess preliminary efficacy of the tailored sleep health enhancement intervention, n=30 older adults with poor sleep health will be randomly assigned to a 4-week 1x/week, telehealth-delivered sleep health enhancement intervention or to a wait-list control condition. Participants will wear wrist-worn actigraphy, complete sleep, frailty, and quality of life questionnaires at baseline and reassessments.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sleep Health Enhancement Intervention | Experimental | The sleep health enhancement intervention is a 4-week, 1x/week one-one-one program with a graduate research assistant who will be trained and supervised by the PI in provision of the sleep health enhancement intervention. |
|
| Wait-List Control Group | No Intervention | The wait-list control group will be encouraged to continue with their usual activities and sleep habits during the wait period between baseline and reassessment and will undergo the sleep health enhancement intervention following the initial reassessment. |
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleep Health Enhancement Intervention | Behavioral | The program is based on principles from CBT-I (time in bed restriction, stimulus control, relaxation techniques, sleep education) and includes behavioral strategies to entrain circadian rhythm, strengthen sleep homeostasis, reduce hyperarousal, and sleep hygiene techniques. Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) will serve as the theoretic framework for behavior change techniques (BCT) threaded through the sleep health enhancement intervention. Participants will maintain a sleep diary during the program to aid in tailoring the program, self-monitoring of behavior, and feedback of behavior. Goals will be set by the participant at each session and reviewed at subsequent sessions, and motivational interviewing principles will be incorporated. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| 6-item Acceptability Scale | 5-point Likert scale on ease of use, understandability, enjoyment, perceived helpfulness, time commitment, and overall satisfaction | 6 week |
| semi-standardized qualitative interview | Feasibility and acceptability will be assessed via semi-structured interview with a trained graduate research assistant following standard qualitative methods to determine attitudes, perceptions and experiences of effectiveness, potential barriers, benefits, and likes/dislikes of the sleep health enhancement intervention. The interview will be recorded for analysis purposes | 6 week |
| Tilburg Frailty Indicator | The Tilburg Frailty Indicator consists of 15 questions with score ranging from 0-15 with a higher score indicating higher level of frailty. The physical, psychological, and social frailty sub scores range from 0-8, 0-4, and 0-3 respectively. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| WHOQOL-BREF | The WHOQOL-BREF consists of 26 items and 4 domains of quality of life (psychological, physical health, social relationships and environmental). Scores range from 4-20 for each domain and a higher score indicates higher quality of life. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Ru_SATED sleep health composite | Ru-SATED sleep health composite will be calculated using actigraphy data and self-report questionnaires. The domains will be summed to create the composite sleep health score ranging from 0-6 with a higher score indicating better sleep health. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index | Scores range from 0-21 with a higher score indicating a lower quality of sleep. A global score of >5 indicates poor sleep quality. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Epworth Sleepiness Scale |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Timed Up and Go | Timed Up and Go measures functional mobility and consists of sitting in a chair, standing up, walking 3-m, turning around, returning to the chair, and sitting down. The outcome is the time in seconds it takes to complete the task. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| 15 ft walk test |

Consists of eight scenarios of daily activity, and participants use a four-point Likert scale to rate how likely they are to doze. Score ranges 0-24 with a higher score indicating daytime sleepiness.
| baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Dysfunctional Beliefs About Sleep | This assessment is a 10 item Likert-scale self-report questionnaire. Higher scores indicate more dysfunctional beliefs. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Sleep Self-Efficacy | Sleep Self-Efficacy is a 9 item self-report Likert-scale questionnaire use to identify sleep self-efficacy. Scores range from 0-45 and a higher score indicates higher sleep self-efficacy. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Actigraphy | Participants will wear an actigraph on their non-dominant wrist for 7 nights | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
The test is performed in a hallway or open space, and the time it takes to walk 15 ft is noted in seconds. |
| baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) | The test is performed in a hallway or open space with two cones marking the turn-around points. The participant walks between the two cones for six minutes. Distance is measured by number of laps completed. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Grip strength of the dominant and nondominant hand | Grip strength of the dominant and nondominant hand will be assessed using a dynamometer with the participant seated, elbow flexed to 90 degrees, and arm by their side. The participant will perform one practice submaximal effort for acclimation followed by one maximal effort squeeze. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| The Continuous Performance Test (CPT) | The Continuous Performance Test (CPT) requires participants to respond as quickly and accurately as possible to a series of stimuli that are delivered via computer. The participants will be instructed to tap the space bar for every letter except "X." The participants' scores will be determined by their scores in detectability (e.g., difficulty differentiating targets from non-targets), error type (e.g., omissions, commissions, perseverations) and reaction time statistics. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| The Stroop Test | The Stroop Test requires participants to inhibit the natural response (reading a word) and replace it with another response (saying a color). Each participant is given a list of X's printed in colored ink and a list of words printed in colored ink. The participant is instructed to name the color of the ink. They are given 45 seconds to name as many colors as they can. The reported outcome measure of this test is an interference score that is the difference between the two conditions while normalizing for number of x's using the following formulae: x-words/x. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
| Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ) | Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ) assesses perception of cognitive abilities over the past 6 months. consists of 25 items that the individual rates on a 5-point Likert scale with 0 = "never" and 4 = "Very Often" with a summary score of 0-100 with a higher score indicating poorer perceived cognitive abilities. | baseline, 6 week and 12 week reassessments |
