Cascading A Healthy Sleep Intervention In Vocational Education

Официальное название

Cascading an Intervention to Promote Healthy Sleep Among Adolescents Following Vocational Education Via a Participatory Approach

Обзор

Sleep is crucial for the mental, cognitive and physical health of adolescents. However, teenagers in 2024 sleep less and less and their sleep is of poorer quality. It is striking that adolescents who follow vocational education sleep even worse compared to peers who follow a technical or general education. It is therefore important to focus on this risk group of adolescents to reduce health differences. However, there are no previous intervention studies that focused on them. In previous research, a healthy sleep intervention was already developed, implemented and evaluated in a participatory manner. Within this research, the investigators want to focus on evaluating the process of implementation of this intervention among first and second year secondary school students (12 to 14 year olds) and teachers from vocational education. Based on the results of this process evaluation, the investigators want to deliver this intervention as a ready-made package to Flemish secondary schools.

Вмешательства

• Другое Healthy Sleep Intervention
  This intervention has a duration of nine weeks and starts with a kick-off event where the students of the action group provide explanations to fellow students. Furthermore, the intervention is structured in five themes of approximately two weeks each: 1) importance of healthy sleep, 2) sleep and wake cycle, 3) screen time, 4) exercise and nutrition and 5) screen use and mental well-being. Three posters are provided for each theme, five to seven Instagram posts and a class discussion. In addition

  co-creation process with students and teachers: to adapt the existing intervention to the needs of the school. For this, schools can recruit 6 to 8 students via purposeful sampling to form an action group. They will be asked to participate in two sessions during the lunch break in which 1) the needs of the students at school in relation to healthy sleep are mapped out and the goals of the already developed intervention are supplemented or not based on the needs 2) a choice is made from the alrea
• Другое Training for teachers
  implementation of the implementation intervention for teachers. The implementation intervention consists of a one-off training for all teachers of the 1st and 2nd year of secondary school in which the importance of sleep and the intervention and its materials are explained. A manual per theme is then provided to the teachers who will implement components (see also appendix 'Manual Sleep Project'). Consultation moments will be planned in consultation to discuss the progress of the implementation.
