Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Sleep disorder is one of the most common problems in elderly people. The present study is focused on the effectiveness of educational intervention on sleep quality and psychological well-being in the elderly people. Method: This is a Randomized educational field-controlled trial which was conducted on 90 elderlies with the sleep disorder, who have been selected using systematic random sampling from the clients of comprehensive health cen- ters in Borazjan, Iran, 2019. The educational intervention was presented for 5 weeks by lecture, group discussions and virtual learning methods. Data were collected by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Ryff’s Psychological well-being scale before and 2 months after the intervention. The data were analyzed using SPSS-25 software using independent t-test, and Chi-square test. Results: The results showed significant statistical differences in sleep quality, subscales of sleep efficiency, sleeping time, and taking sleeping pills in experimental and control groups after the intervention (p<0.005). Moreover, significant statistical difference was observed in terms of the mean scale of psychological well-being between experimental and control groups (p=0.036). Conclusion: Behavioral interventions can make various advantages for elderly people. Therefore, this study suggests providing such interventions in a wide range in comprehensive health centers, and boarding centers for the elderly.
