Insomnia Severity Index: The ISI is a self-report instrument measuring respondentsâ?? perception of both nocturnal and diurnal symptoms of insomnia. The ISI comprises 7 items assessing the perceived severity of difficulties initiating sleep, staying asleep, early morning awakenings, satisfaction with current sleep pattern, interference with daily functioning, noticeability of impairment attributed to the sleep problem, and degree of distress or concern caused by the sleep problem. The ISI has good psychometric properties and is sensitive to treatment in clinical trials.Timepoint: 3 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is a self-rated questionnaire which assesses sleep quality and disturbances. Different individual items generate seven "component" scores: subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbances, use of sleeping medication, and daytime dysfunction. The sum of scores for these seven components yields one global score. Timepoint: 3 months
