I read it as then saying they just got them to spend even more time in bed, despite the problem being they already have a lot of non-sleep time in bed. So it just reduced their time available to do other stuff. Am I misunderstanding?

I read the abstract like the managed through information to reduce the non sleeping time in bed. They shd have used a fitness tracker to confirm, relying on the answers of people who might think their income depends on giving the 'right' answers is dangerous.

oh yes, thanks. I didnt parse the second half of the sentence. This totally doesnt make sense. I mean people seem to have a lot of interrupted sleep, wouldnt reduce the interruption increase sleep quality (and time)? (But probably due to small infants, so might be difficult to change that)
