Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

All participants will wear a sleep tracking device (e.g. Fitbit, Whoop, Oura etc) to record their total time asleep each night.

Time frame: 4 weeks

Changes in scores on the Sleep Quality Scale (SQS). [Timeframe Baseline to Week 4]

Consisting of 28 items, the SQS evaluates six domains of sleep quality: daytime symptoms, restoration after sleep, problems initiating and maintaining sleep, difficulty waking, and sleep satisfaction. Using a four-point, Likert-type scale, respondents indicate how frequently they exhibit certain sleep behaviors (0 = "few," 1 = "sometimes," 2 = "often," and 3 = "almost always").

Time frame: 4 weeks

Changes in self-reported energy levels. [Timeframe: Baseline to Week 12]

Measured via study-specific questionnaires. Participants will answer on a Likert scale (0-5) with 0 indicating the best score and 5 indicating the worse score.

Time frame: 12 weeks

Changes in self-reported cognitive function. [Timeframe: Baseline to Week 12]

Measured via study-specific questionnaires. Participants will answer on a Likert scale (0-5) with 0 indicating the best score and 5 indicating the worse score.
