Further, we tested predictors-credibility, expectancy, usefulness, and utilization-that may affect TranS-C outcomes. Midlife and older participants from a community setting (>49 years, 62.3% female, 37.7% African American or Black) with sleep and circadian problems and SMI were randomized to receive TranS-C plus usual care (TranS-C+UC, n = 27) or usual care followed by delayed treatment with TranS-C (UC-DT, n = 26). Immediate and delayed TranS-C data were combined to increase power (combined n = 52). Outcomes were assessed at pretreatment, posttreatment, and 6-month follow-up. Credibility and expectancy were assessed during the second session. Usefulness and utilization of TranS-C skills were assessed at posttreatment and 6-month follow-up. TranS-C+UC, relative to UC-DT, was associated with improvements in depression symptoms, sleep disturbance, overall sleep health, and select sleep/wake outcomes, though not all improvements were sustained at 6-month follow-up. Lower usefulness of TranS-C skills predicted more severe sleep disturbance at posttreatment and daytime sleep-related impairment at posttreatment and 6-month follow-up. Lower utilization predicted more severe psychiatric symptoms at posttreatment, sleep disturbance at posttreatment and 6-month follow-up, and overall impairment and daytime sleep-related impairment at 6-month follow-up. Higher credibility and expectancy predicted greater usefulness of TranS-C skills at posttreatment and 6-month follow-up and greater utilization at 6-month follow-up. Together, findings highlight benefits of TranS-C for midlife and older adults with SMI. However, boosting credibility, expectancy, utilization, and usefulness may meaningfully improve TranS-C outcomes.","journal":"Behavior Therapy","year":2022,"id":253217,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":22,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9579,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2022-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":384305,"name":"Caitlin E.
