CBT-I
Individual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) delivered once a week for six (6) weeks. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). Participants assigned to the CBT-I condition will attend 1-hour individual sessions of CBT-I once a week for five weeks. A sixth week of treatment will be included - and scheduled for the same date as the post-treatment assessment - if the participant and research team agree that it would be beneficial (e.g., if a participant has difficulty grasping cognitive therapy concepts). Consistent with clinical guidelines (Schutte-Rodin, Broch, Buysse, Dorsey, \& Sateia, 2008), treatment will include stimulus control (e.g., limit use of bed to sleep or sexual activity, get out of bed if lying awake for more than 20 minutes), sleep restriction (limit time in bed to amount of time spent sleeping on a typical night), sleep hygiene (e.g., avoid exercise within 2 hours of bedtime, create cool and dark sleep environment), relaxation training, and cognitive restructuring. Sleep Hygeine: All participants will receive a one-page handout on sleep hygiene that includes personalized normative feedback on their alcohol use. This is the only intervention that participants assigned to the Sleep Hygiene condition will receive and is consistent with what may be expected as standard care in a doctor's visit with a primary care physician.

Population: Some participants lost to follow-up.

Assessed using Daily Drinking Questionnaire. Participants report the number of standard drinks consumed on each day of a typical week in the past month (on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc). Responses for each day are then summed to calculate a total "drinks per week" variable, where higher scores indicate more standard drinks.

Population: Some participants were lost to follow-up.

Assessed using the Monetary Choice Questionnaire (MCQ). Participants indicate if they would rather receive a smaller amount of money now or a greater amount of money in a specified amount of time (e.g., 100 days, 2 days). The MCQ is scored using a logarithmic subject-specific discount rate (k variable). K values typically fall between 0.0 and 0.5, with higher values indicating a preference for smaller, immediate rewards over larger, delayed reward ("delay discounting").

CBT-I
n=38 participants at risk
Individual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) delivered once a week for six (6) weeks. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). Participants assigned to the CBT-I condition will attend 1-hour individual sessions of CBT-I once a week for five weeks. A sixth week of treatment will be included - and scheduled for the same date as the post-treatment assessment - if the participant and research team agree that it would be beneficial (e.g., if a participant has difficulty grasping cognitive therapy concepts). Consistent with clinical guidelines (Schutte-Rodin, Broch, Buysse, Dorsey, \& Sateia, 2008), treatment will include stimulus control (e.g., limit use of bed to sleep or sexual activity, get out of bed if lying awake for more than 20 minutes), sleep restriction (limit time in bed to amount of time spent sleeping on a typical night), sleep hygiene (e.g., avoid exercise within 2 hours of bedtime, create cool and dark sleep environment), relaxation training, and cognitive restructuring. Sleep Hygeine: All participants will receive a one-page handout on sleep hygiene that includes personalized normative feedback on their alcohol use. This is the only intervention that participants assigned to the Sleep Hygiene condition will receive and is consistent with what may be expected as standard care in a doctor's visit with a primary care physician.
