Summary

In fall 2016, there are two quick rounds of a competition to Share CBT-I. In round 1, students compete to impact the most in  Audience #1:  health consumers seeking insomnia information.  In round 2, students compete to impact the most in Audience #2: academic healthcare providers (including CBT-I providers).

Using an A-B design (testing social media strategy and tactics), the Team will compete to share the post, Insomnia Live! (a broadcast in a post), to reach the most insomnia health consumers. The winner is the student whose strategy brought in the most comments (in the post) from health consumers.  The team will broadcast those results in their team post (And the Winner is …). Again using an A-B design, the team will compete to share And the Winner is ... to reach the most healthcare providers (including CBT-I providers). Finally, the team will update their team post to include the winner of the second round and present all results to PRSSA members.
