Less is known, however, about the efficacy of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia in populations affected by high work stress.
Internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia could potentially reduce this deficit given its demonstrated effectiveness. Diffuse boundaries between work and private life can additionally complicate the use of recreational activities that facilitate cognitive detachment.Ĭognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia is effective but rarely implemented. Insomnia complaints by people experiencing work-related stress are correlated with a deficient cognitive detachment from work. Both are associated with personal distress and diminished general functioning, as well as substantial socio-economic costs due to, for example, reduced productivity at the work place and absenteeism. Insomnia and work-related stress often co-occur.
