A randomized controlled study was conducted with three groups of mothers with night waking infants less than 18 mths. Groups received a specially written advice booklet and support visits, the booklet only or no intervention. A fourth group of non-night waking infants acted as a comparison group. Mothers' estimates of waking frequency and infant sleep diaries and maternal well being measures were used to assess change. No significant differences in terms of outcome measures were found between three waking groups. Mothers of night wakers showed higher levels of distress than those in the sleeping group. Parents of wakers were positive about both the support they had received and the booklet.
对三组母亲进行了一项随机对照研究，这些母亲的婴儿年龄小于18个月且有夜间醒来的情况。三组分别接受一本专门编写的建议手册和支持性家访、仅接受手册或不接受干预。第四组非夜间醒来的婴儿作为对照组。通过母亲对醒来频率的估计、婴儿睡眠日记以及母亲幸福感测量来评估变化。在三个醒来组之间，在结果测量方面未发现显著差异。夜间醒来婴儿的母亲比睡眠组的母亲表现出更高的痛苦水平。醒来婴儿的父母对他们所接受的支持和手册都持积极态度。
