Dyadic Sleep Study

Conditions

My Sleep Our Sleep (MSOS) Program — BEHAVIORAL
MSOS is a sleep intervention developed by the investigator aimed at improving sleep health for patient-sleep-partner caregiver dyads using behavioral education in sleep behaviors, sleep cognition and sleep in relationship. MSOS will be delivered over four weeks, in weekly one-hour sessions, one session per week.
Brief Behavioral Treatment for Insomnia (BBTI) — BEHAVIORAL
BBTI is brief patient-focused intervention for patient-sleep-partner caregiver dyads, aimed at altering participants' sleep behaviors to improve sleep. BBTI utilizes behavioral education in sleep restriction and stimulus control. For sleep restriction, participants will be instructed to limit the time they spend in bed, which serves to increase sleep efficiency. For stimulus control, participants will be instructed to go to bed only when feeling sleepy and reserve the bed for sleep and intimacy. BBTI will be delivered over four weeks, in weekly one-hour sessions, one session per week.

The purpose of this study is to learn about sleep behaviors and test different ways to help patients with cancer and caregiver partners.

Experimental: BBTI Intervention Group
Participants (patient-sleep-partner caregiver dyads) in this group will receive the Brief Behavioral Treatment for Insomnia (BBTI). Total participation is up to 13 weeks.
