Behavioural Methods in the Treatment of Sleep Disorders--A Pilot Study.

Richman, Naomi; And Others

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Allied Disciplines, v26 n4 p581-90 Jul 1985

Treatment of 35 children (between 1 and 5 years of age) with sleep disorders was focused on helping the child stay in bed quietly if awake and to settle into sleep without parental attention. Improvement occurred in 77 percent. Results illustrate effects of treatment sample selection and indicate dangers of generalizing findings. (Author/RH)
