Abstract

The efficacy of behavioural methods of treatment for severe sleep disorders was examined in a pilot study involving 35 children aged 1-5 years. Improvement occurred in 77%. Methodological issues concerning the selection of children for treatment, selecting adequate controls and outcome measures, and using parents as therapists, are discussed.
