Sleep education has been used as a method of primary and secondary prevention of sleep problems in all age groups. An especially vulnerable age group are adolescents who frequently have poor sleep habits and suffer from sleep deprivation. In adolescents, insufficient sleep, inadequate sleep quality, and irregular sleep patterns are associated with daytime sleepiness, negative moods, increased likelihood of stimulant use, higher levels of risk-taking behavior, poor school performance, and increased risk of unintentional injuries. As an US study has shown, sleepiness was the major causal factor in many traffic accidents and more than 50% of sleep-related crashes involved drivers aged 25 or younger. The study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a theory-based sleep hygiene intervention in improving sleep quality in adolescents.
Qazvin University Of Medical Sciences is the lead sponsor of 32 studies on the registry; none are open to participants now.
Counted across the registry records on this site, refreshed daily.
Exclusion Criteria:

Behavioral: Control
The adolescents will receive relevant information on the importance of adequate sleep, the consequences of sleep deprivation, Provide information about others' approval,Provide normative information about others' behaviour,Goal setting ,action planning, coping planning, Set graded tasks,Prompt self-monitoring of sleep behaviour
Behavioral: Intervention
the adolescents will not receive any specific intervention

Changes in self-reported Sleep hygiene behavior
Sleep behavior will be assessed through self-report employing 24-h recall of the previous night's sleep
Time frame: changes from baseline , 1 month and 6 Months follow-up
Changes in Sleep duration
Sleep duration will be measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSIQ). The PSQI is a self-administered questionnaire to assess subjective sleep quality during the previous month (Buysse et al., 1989). The self-rated items of the PSQI generate seven component scores (range of subscale scores, 0-3): sleep quality; sleep latency; sleep duration; habitual sleep efficiency; sleep disturbance; use of sleeping medication; and daytime dysfunction.
Time frame: changes from baseline , 1 month and 6 Months follow-up
Changes in psychological predictors of sleep hygiene behavior (attitude, subjective norms intention, perceived behavioral control , Self-monitoring, action planning and coping planning)
psychological predictors of sleep hygiene behavior were assessed using a using a self-reported measure. All items are rated on a Likert-type scale, ranging from 1 to 5.
Time frame: changes from baseline , 1 month and 6 Months follow-up
