There is an overview of the paper, methodology, key findings, and implications for practice.

Discussion points include.

The association between parental cognition and children’s sleep.
How the questionnaire was developed and the cultural differences in sleep patterns.
The importance of re-examining parental beliefs and attitudes about their child’s sleep.
