POSTPONED
Live Webinar ~ 12:00 - 1:00 PM EST

Session Overview
An evening circadian preference is associated with higher rates of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The presentation will discuss study aims to a) test the effectiveness of a cognitive behavioral sleep intervention (Transdiagnostic Sleep and Circadian Intervention; TranS-C) in a sample of adolescents with an evening circadian preference and MDD and b) evaluate improved alignment between circadian biology and sleep-wake behavior as a potential mechanism in the relationship between sleep and depression symptom improvement.
Learning Objectives
After participating in this activity, attendees should be better able to:
- Identify adolescents with evening circadian preference as a vulnerable subgroup.
- Identify misalignment between circadian rhythm and sleep/wake behavior as a potential mechanism of change in depression symptoms among this subgroup.
