Tailoring a brief sleep intervention for autism: a randomised controlled trial

高达86%的自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童经历行为睡眠问题，这些问题已被证明与ASD核心症状增加，内化和外化障碍的发生率增加以及父母压力增加有关。“Sleeping Sound”研究是一种新的行为睡眠干预，作为减少ASD儿童睡眠问题和改善心理健康结果的治疗方法，它显示出很大的希望。

Up to 86% of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) experience behavioural sleep problems which have been shown to be associated with increased core ASD symptoms, increased rates of internalizing and externalizing disorders, and increased parental stress. The “Sleeping Sound” study is a novel behavioural sleep intervention that has shown much promise as a treatment to reduce sleep problems and improve mental health outcomes in children with ASD.
