Abstract

This research evaluates the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) across different age demographics, from young adults to the elderly. Using a sample size of 300 individuals, the study compares the efficacy of CBT-I in improving sleep quality, revealing that while all age groups benefit, older adults show the most significant improvements. These results recommend tailored CBT-I interventions to optimize outcomes for diverse age groups.
