Insomnia is a disorder with significant psychiatric comorbidity. This chapter provides an overview of how to assess and treat insomnia in patients with comorbid psychiatric disorders using cognitive behavioral interventions. First, the authors review the theoretical framework for the behavioral and cognitive perspectives regarding the etiology of chronic insomnia. They then provide a step-by-step guide for the assessment of insomnia, including the use of validated measures and the necessary components of a semi-structured clinical interview needed to identify predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating factors while at the same time paying attention to possible comorbidities and differential diagnostic possibilities that may better explain the patient’s difficulty. How to treat insomnia using cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) techniques of stimulus control therapy and sleep restriction therapy with formal cognitive restructuring in order to target arousal, dysfunctional behaviors and maladaptive thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes is explained. The authors discuss a number of contemporary issues with the delivery of CBT-I including the concurrent use of sleeping medications, the limitations and side effects of CBT-I, and alternative CBT-I delivery models. Further, the chapter examines the efficacy and effectiveness data for CBT-I in patients with psychiatric comorbidities. Lastly, the chapter presents a case example of CBT-I delivery in a patient with insomnia and comorbid major depressive disorder. The authors conclude with recommendations for future research.

This study investigated the effectiveness of parental skills training using a cognitive-behavioral method in order to reduce the behavioral problems of the preschool children. This was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design. The statistical population of the study consisted of all parents of the preschool children in Isfahan in educational year of 2014-2015. To this end, 32 parents (64 persons) who obtained 1.5 SD higher than the reported mean in response to the behavioral problems of their children, were randomly selected and divided into two groups of 16 parents (32 persons) as the treatment and control groups based on the random distribution. After conducting the pre-test for both groups, the treatment group received parental skills training using a cognitive behavioral method for six sessions during one month; however, the control group received no training. Then, for both groups, post-test was implemented and follow-up study was conducted. In order to assess the behavioral problems of the children, Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) was used. Finally, the data were analyzed using the analysis of covariance. The results showed that the mean of the treatment group was significantly reduced compared to that of the control group in terms of the behavioral problems, anxiety, depression, somatization, social problems, thought problems, attention problems, rule-breaking behaviors, aggressive behaviors, and other problems.
