Key Project Outcomes

Preliminary findings indicate that among autistic adults with insomnia, COGMUSE-AUT shows improves non-trained cognition, pre-sleep cognitive arousal, sleep initiation and sleep maintenance. Larger randomized controlled trials with extended follow-up and objective assessment of arousal and sleep mechanisms underlying these cognitive training effects are warranted.
