The Impact of Brief Behavioral Treatment for Insomnia Versus Brief Mindfulness Treatment on Cognition and Sleep Health in Adults (Age 50+) With HIV

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of a telephone-delivered Brief Behavioral Treatment Insomnia (BBTI) versus a Brief Mindfulness Treatment (BMT) on cognitive and sleep outcomes in older adults with HIV. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the effects of BBTI vs BMT on self-reported and observed sleep outcomes in older adults with HIV and insomnia up to 1-year post-intervention? What are the effects of BBTI vs BMT on self-reported and observed cognitive comes in older adults with HIV and insomnia up to 1-year post-intervention? What is the association between Alzheimer's Disease biomarkers and sleep and cognitive outcomes in older adults with HIV receiving BBTI vs BMT? Participants will: * Complete 4 weeks of telephone-delivered BBTI or BMT * Attend baseline, post-intervention, and 1-year post in-person visits for sleep and cognitive assessments * Have blood collected at all three time points

Interventions

• BBTI · BEHAVIORAL

  4-week intervention delivered via telephone (once a week for 30 minutes)

• BMT · BEHAVIORAL

  4-week intervention delivered via telephone (once a week for 30 minutes)
