Summary

This study tests whether short behavioral therapy sessions can improve sleep and reduce alcohol and cannabis use in young adults aged 18-29 who struggle with insomnia and heavy drinking or marijuana use. Researchers will enroll 800 participants in Washington State and compare those who receive the brief therapy to those who don't. The goal is to see if these low-cost, non-drug interventions can help young people get better rest and cut back on substance use.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Brief Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (BBTI) and Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students (BASICS)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide an effective, low-cost approach to help young adults sleep better and cut down on heavy drinking and cannabis use.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral intervention study, not a drug trial, so effects may be modest. Results depend on participants sticking with the program, and long-term benefits are uncertain.
