Sleep, Mood, and Behavior Study

This study is one of two interlinking protocols developed to investigate neural, affective,
behavioral and social predictors of improvement as a critical next step in advancing the
understanding of processes involved in the treatment response of anxiety disorders in youth.
This protocol will offer a six to eight session sleep intervention (Sleeping Tigers)children
ages 9-13 who currently have a DSM-IV anxiety disorder and who endorse some level of
impairment in their ability to sleep. Participants will have completed a 16 session

assess whether improving sleep will further enhance affective, clinical, and social
functioning.
