Targeted Sleep Enhancement Reduces Residual Anxiety Symptoms in Peri-Adolescents Previously Treated for Anxiety Disorders - ScienceDirect

The article presents data from 46 anxious adolescents (ages 9-14) where improving sleep after completing anxiety treatment resulted in further reduction in anxiety severity.

These data have implications for future evaluation of efficacy and effectiveness of sleep promoting interventions on anxiety symptoms across diverse populations and contexts in adolescence.
