Let’s assume that you received your diagnosis of insomnia from your doctor. Imagine that you were advised to participate in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) before drug therapy. In such a case, do you participate in CBT?

Yes, I receive CBT 103 (51.5) 1.3 95 (47.5) −0.1 88 (44.0) −1.3 286 (47.7) .32

No. I do not receive CBT 97 (48.5) −1.3 105 (52.5) 0.1 112 (56.0) 1.3 314 (52.3)
If you had to choose only one of the two as a treatment for insomnia, would you choose CBT or drug therapy?

I choose CBT 81 (40.5) −5.8b,c 128 (64.0) 2.4b,d 134 (67.0) 3.4b,c 343 (57.2) <.001

I choose drug therapy 119 (59.5) 5.8b,c 72 (36.0) −2.4b, d 66 (33.0) −3.4b,c 257 (42.8)
Other than CBT for insomnia in face-to-face sessions with a therapist, if there is a way to receive CBT via the internet and support from a therapist by email, which do you choose?

I choose face-to-face CBT 119 (59.5) 2.3b,d 89 (44.5) −2.9b,c 110 (53.0) 0.7 318 (53.0) .009

I choose CBT on the internet 81 (40.5) −2.3b,d 111 (55.5) 2.9b,c 90 (47.0) −0.7 282 (47.0)

aFrom chi-square values.

bCells with significant adjusted standardized residuals.

cThe adjusted standardized residual is 2.58 or greater (or, alternatively, less than −2.58), its associated probability is less than 0.01.

dThe adjusted standardized residual is 1.96 or greater (or, alternatively, less than −1.96), its associated probability is less than 0.05.
