Abstract
The outcome of 19 consecutive children referred with sleep disorders and managed by behavioural methods is described. An 84% success rate is reported, which was maintained at 6 months' follow up. Successful outcome was associated with absence of marital discord and attendance of both parents at treatment sessions.
