Summary

This study tests whether a parent-led online program can improve sleep in autistic children aged 3 to 7 years. About 130 children will be randomly assigned to one of two behavioral sleep programs for 10 weeks. The goal is to see if the structured program reduces insomnia symptoms better than a general sleep education program.
