Key Words Positive emotion-engagement-relationship-meaning-achievement theory; Cognitive intervention; Depression; Insomnia; Sleep quality
Core Tip This randomized controlled trial demonstrates that cognitive intervention based on the Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, Achievement (PERMA) theory significantly improves outcomes in patients with comorbid depression and insomnia. Compared to conventional therapy, the PERMA-based approach reduced depressive symptoms (17-item Hamilton Depression Scale/Self-rating Depression Scale), enhanced sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), and improved cognitive function (Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status), social performance (Chinese version of the Personal and Social Performance Scale), and quality of life (World Health Organization Abbreviated Quality of Life Scale). The findings highlight PERMA’s dual-action benefits - addressing both psychological distress and sleep dysfunction - through positive psychology principles, offering a novel, non-pharmacological strategy for this high-comorbidity population. Clinical adoption could optimize holistic patient recovery.
