The aim of this study is to design a sleep and mindfulness intervention to improve sleep, quality of life, and cognitive function among older adults.
The proposed R34 planning grant will the design and adapt a sleep, mindfulness, and sleep disorders education intervention entitled to cognitively unimpaired older adults residing in housing facilities. Novel, social network techniques will be used to identify opinion leaders who will assist with message dissemination. This grant will adapt content from an existing, evidence-based Sleep Health Program to the needs of older adults. In addition, the adapted Sleep Health Program will be coupled with Mindfulness content then disseminated in a small pilot study to ascertain feasibility and acceptability of the proposed novel social network approach for deploying the adapted Sleep Health and Mindfulness Program in a planned R01. The data collected in this R34 will include qualitative interview and usability interview data where cognitively unimpaired older adults will be recruited and asked to provide input to the messages and approach. Target outcomes will also be collected in the planned pilot, including survey responses to sleep, sleep disorders evaluation/care, quality of life, and cognition. Finally, FitBit data will also be captured for 2 weeks at several time points during the pilot study (baseline, 2-months, and 6-months).

| Sleep Health and Mindfulness Program for Older Adults | Experimental | This grant will develop and design an adapted version of an existing, effective Sleep Health Program, which will be coupled with mindfulness content, to meet the needs and unique barriers older adults in housing facilities face. The modules for the proposed Sleep Health and Mindfulness program will be designed in collaboration with the implementation partner, the City of Boston Age Strong Commission, whose talented leaders and staff have decades of experience designing programs for seniors on a variety of topics, including mindfulness. |

| The score of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) | The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) contains 19 self-rated questions which measures seven aspects of sleep: (1) subjective sleep quality, (2) sleep latency, (3) sleep duration, (4) habitual sleep efficiency, (5) sleep disturbances, (6) use of sleeping medication, and (7) daytime dysfunction. The 19 self-rated items are combined to form seven component scores, each of which has a range of 0-3 points (0 indicates no difficulty, while 3 indicates severe difficulty). The seven component scores are then summed to yield one global score, with a range of 0-21 points (0 indicating no difficulty, and 21 indicating severe difficulties in all the seven areas of sleep quality). |
