Grupo de Participantes / Braço |
Intervenção / Tratamento |
|---|---|
|
Experimental: ImmedSHUTi/ImmedHyp
In the first part of the trial, participants are assigned to the Immediate SHUTi group; that is, they receive access to the SHUTi program right away.
In the second part of the trial (3 months later), participants are assigned to the Immediate Hypnosis group; that is, they receive access to the Hypnosis recordings right away.

SHUTi is an Internet program based on cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I).
Users complete daily online sleep diaries in addition to receiving weekly access to six interactive "Cores" of information.
As they progress through the program, users receive tailored instructions for how to improve their sleep.
Subjects listen to self-hypnosis recordings designed to improve their disturbed sleep.

Experimental: ImmedSHUTi/DelayHyp
In the first part of the trial, participants are assigned to the Immediate SHUTi group; that is, they receive access to the SHUTi program right away.
In the second part of the trial (3 months later), participants are assigned to the Delayed Hypnosis group; that is, they receive access to the Hypnosis recordings at the end of the study.
