Experimental Treatment
Group I: Arm 1: InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants (N=50) who endorse insomnia will be followed for 8 weeks. All participants will be asked to download a separate app to passively monitor sleep that will inform the personalized messages. Participants will also be asked to respond to daily prompts in order to validate the passive sleep data. The study includes two phases: (1) a training and validation phase and (2) an intervention phase. During phase 1, participants' sleep habits and other behaviors will be monitored for two weeks in order to validate and optimize the SMS personalized sleep intervention (PSI). In phase 2, participants will be transitioned to the intervention phase of the study.
