Detaljeret beskrivelse
Building upon previous research regarding the use of digital solutions to enhance sleep quality, the primary objective of this study is to test the impact of using the REST-WELL application over a 30-day period within an adult sample.
The present study will be conducted as part of the research project entitled "REM Sleep Augmentation Technology for Wellbeing, Affectivity, and Quality of Life Improvement" (unique registration code PN-IV-P7-7.1-PTE-2024-0844).
Participants in the experimental group will use the application for 30 nights. The application detects REM sleep episodes and delivers brief haptic vibrations during a maximum of five REM episodes per night. The smart alarm provides gentle vibrations within the 30-minute period preceding the scheduled wake-up time, followed by a full vibration at the set time.
Participants in the control group will wear the Apple Watch for sleep monitoring over 30 nights, without receiving nocturnal vibrations or using the smart alarm feature.

Eksperimentel: Target
The haptic intervention delivered via Smartwatch will be applied in this group. |
An integrated system will be utilized, consisting of a mobile and Apple Watch application available in TestFlight (Apple's testing framework), comprising several components: the Sleep Data Collection Module, the Sleep Data Analysis Module, the Specific Sleep Cycle Detection Module, the Integration Module between sleep analysis and the haptic engine of the wearable device used, the Software Module for controlling the haptic engine and generating vibrations, and the Post-Haptic Intervention (vibration-based) Sleep Data Analysis Module. |
|
Ingen indgriben: Control
The haptic intervention will not be delivered in this group, despite that participants will wear the Smartwatch during sleep. |

The Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10)
Tidsramme: Day 0 and 30.
|
The Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) measure adjustment difficulties, including 10 items. In the present study, it will be used as a screening tool, higher levels indicating elevated distress, as follows: scores between 20-24 indicate the likelihood to present a mild disorder, scores between 25 and 29 indicate the likelihood to present a moderate disorder, while scores above 30 mean the possibility of a severe disorder. |
Day 0 and 30.

The PROMIS Scale
Tidsramme: Day 0 and 30.
|
The PROMIS Scale is a measure of the degree to which responders present sleeping difficultiesThe total scores ranges between 8 and 40, higher scores indicating the increased severity of sleep disturbances. The raw scores are then converted to T scores, which can be interpreted as follows: final T score between 55 and 59 indicates mild intensity, between 60 and 69 moderate intensity, while T scores over 70 are equivalent to high severity. |

The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS)
Tidsramme: Day 0 and 30.
|
The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) constitutes a measure of various aspects of one's ability to modulate emotions, specifically emotional awareness and acceptance. Raw scores range from 36 to 180, higher scores suggesting increased emotion regulation difficulties. Severity categories are based on percentiles, responders presenting levels that correspond to the 96th percentile or above indicating very high emotion regulation difficulties. |
Day 0 and 30.

The PERMA Profiler
Tidsramme: Day 0 and 30.
|
The PERMA Profiler is a measure of well-being, involving six subscales, as follows: positive and negative emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning, accomplishment, as well as health. Each item is rated using a scale from 0 to 10, the subscale scores being calculated as the mean of individual items. A total score of minimum 9 is considered an indicator of very good functioning, while a score below 5 is thought to be a hallmark of malfunctioning. |
