Spencer C. Dawson studies sleep and its disorders from a behavioral psychology perspective. Much of the work focuses on non-drug treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and mindfulness-based approaches, including how these help people with conditions like insomnia combined with sleep apnea, narcolepsy, excessive daytime sleepiness, and chronic migraine. The research also examines how sleep interacts with daily functioning, mood, relationships, and substance use.
