The purpose of sleep restriction is to reduce the patient\'s time in bed, bringing it closer to their actual sleep time, thereby improving sleep efficiency and quality. Stimulus control, on the other hand, aims to associate the bed with a rapid sense of falling asleep, reducing the negative association between the bed and insomnia.
