Interventions

BEHAVIORALSleep Diary

Based on the participant's sleep diary data, a new weekly sleep schedule will be prescribed as follows: if sleep efficiency is \<85%, the prescribed time in bed is reduced by 15 minutes (reducing sleep opportunity by 15 minutes); if sleep efficiency is 85-90%, the schedule remains unchanged; if sleep efficiency is \>90%, the prescribed time in bed is increased by 15 minutes, allowing an extra 15 minutes of sleep opportunity.

BEHAVIORALFitbit

Based on the participant's Fitbit data, a new weekly sleep schedule will be prescribed as follows: if sleep efficiency is \<85%, the prescribed time in bed is reduced by 15 minutes (reducing sleep opportunity by 15 minutes); if sleep efficiency is 85-90%, the schedule remains unchanged; if sleep efficiency is \>90%, the prescribed time in bed is increased by 15 minutes, allowing an extra 15 minutes of sleep opportunity.
