Description
Yimei Wu and co-authors present a 2024 study of digital therapy for insomnia and its effect on attention bias. Poor sleepers fixate on sleep cues. A first study confirmed that bias with a dot probe task, comparing poor and normal sleepers.
A second study gave one group app based therapy and the other plain education. Both groups slept better on standard scores. Only the therapy group lost its extra vigilance toward sleep cues, and only it felt less fatigued. The authors read this as the therapy fixing a thinking distortion at insomnia's core, not just coaching habits. The trial ran in China, where this angle was untested.
