Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Intervention
In this arm, the participants will receive access to a password protected website that features tailored information and educational materials on sleep health and the signs of sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). There will be both text-based information on sleep health and OSA, and also videos depicting narrative stories about patients who have been diagnosed with OSA and sought treatment.
Tailored sleep health materials.
Active Comparator: Control
In this arm, participants will receive access to generic sleep educational materials that do not feature linguistic or cultural tailoring to the target population. This arm will include access to the same general information (materials on sleep health, sleep disorder signs and symptoms) but be intended for a general audience.
