Effects and Feasibility of a Computer-Based Intervention on Truck Drivers' Sleep

项目摘要 本研究的目的是：（1）翻译一个既定的，讲座培训计划， 将睡眠、警觉性和疲劳管理转换为飞行员基于计算机的、可通过互联网访问的格式 （2）确定E-MAMF对睡眠质量的可行性和影响， 长途卡车司机的素质。具体而言，本研究旨在：（1）确定 用于长途卡车司机的E-MAMF教育干预;（2）确定 试验性E-MAMF教育干预对睡眠数量和质量、主观 长途卡车司机的困倦和疲劳。两组重复测量实验 设计将用于实现拟议项目的具体目标。样品将包括 长途卡车司机每周至少有三个晚上睡在他们的卧铺上， 没有驾驶伙伴或乘客（单独驾驶）的人。参与者将被招募 在几个月的时间里，在美国各州的卡车运输行业贸易展上， 三月，六月，七月，八月和十一月。受试者将被随机分配至E-MAMF 筛选、知情同意和基线数据收集后的对照组 完成.在第一周，所有参与者都将接受活动记录仪监测，并将完成 日常睡眠、疲劳和道路/驾驶条件测量。在第二周，E- MAMF小组将获得E-MAMF的模块1-4，每周在线提供四次 在研究方案期间，每周电话随访一次，以加强 模块信息。等待控制组的参与者每周将收到一次电话 研究团队在协议的前六周内发出的注意力控制呼叫。在第六周， 两组都将接受一周的活动记录仪监测， 为基线活动记录仪监测会话完成的测量。从第七周开始， 等待控制组将获得每周在线交付的E-MAMF模块1-4的访问权限 为期沿着四周，每周电话随访，以加强模块信息。期间 方案第12周，所有受试者将接受第三阶段活动记录仪监测，使用 之前活动记录仪监测会话完成的相同测量。数据将 使用描述性统计、频率、一般线性和混合模型进行分析。

Project Abstract The purposes of this study are: (1) to translate an established, lecture training program on sleep, alertness, and fatigue management to a pilot computer-based, internet-accessible format (E-MAMF); and (2) to determine the feasibility and effects of E-MAMF on sleep quantity and quality of long-haul truck drivers. Specifically, the study aims to: (1) Determine the feasibility of the E-MAMF education intervention for use in long-haul truck drivers; and (2) Determine the effects of the pilot E-MAMF educational intervention on sleep quantity and quality, subjective sleepiness, and fatigue in long-haul truck drivers. A two-group repeated measures experimental design will be used to address the specific aims of the proposed project. The sample will consist of long-haul truck drivers who sleep at least three nights per week in the sleeper berths of their trucks; and who drive without a driving partner or passenger (solo). Participants will be recruited at trucking industry trade shows at various locations in the U.S. states during the months of March, June, July, August, and November. Participants will be randomly assigned to E-MAMF or Wait Control groups after screening, informed consent, and collection of baseline data are complete. During week one, all participants will have actigraph monitoring and will complete daily sleep, fatigue, and road/driving conditions measures. At Week Two, participants in the E- MAMF group will receive access to Modules 1-4 of E-MAMF delivered weekly online for four weeks and weekly telephone follow-up calls for the duration of the study protocol to reinforce module information. Participants in the Wait Control group will receive weekly telephone attention control calls from the research team for the first six weeks of the protocol. At Week Six, both groups will receive one week of actigraph monitoring and will complete all of the same measures completed for the baseline actigraph monitoring session. Beginning on Week Seven, the Wait Control group will receive access to Modules 1-4 of E-MAMF delivered weekly online for four weeks along with weekly telephone followup to reinforce module information. During Week 12 of the protocol, all participants will receive a third period of actigraph monitoring using the same measures completed for the previous actigraph monitoring sessions. Data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics, frequencies, general linear and mixed models.
