失眠是一种常见的疾病，影响着全世界数百万人。目前，大多数患有失眠症的人都服用药物来帮助他们睡眠。然而，有各种各样的行为治疗方法，这些方法在实证研究中被证明是有效的，提供了许多优于药物的优势。此外，行为治疗已被证明比药物治疗更有效。本文综述了这些行为治疗的原理和实践。在论文的最后，还简要讨论了可以模仿失眠的昼夜节律紊乱。
Insomnia is a common disorder effecting millions of people worldwide. Currently most individuals suffering from insomnia take medications to help them sleep. However, there are a variety of behavioral treatments, which have been shown to be effective in empirical studies that offer many advantages over medications. In addition, behavioral treatments have been shown to be more effective long-term than medication. This paper reviews the principles and practice of these behavioral treatments. At the end of the paper there is also a brief discussion of circadian rhythm disorders that can mimic insomnia.
