Evaluation of the Reliability and Validity of a Diagnostic Sleep Disorders Questionnaire

The study aims to develop and test a user-friendly, accessible approach to sleep assessment which can function as an initial "triage" of targeted sleep conditions, such as insomnia, insufficient sleep syndrome, sleep apnea syndromes/snoring, and circadian sleep/wake disorders, within the clinical and community population. Specifically, this study will test the validity and reliability of a self-rated, digitized, and cost-effective diagnostic measure with sufficient sensitivity to accurately assess/diagnose common sleep conditions and/or risk for these conditions. Such an approach, would allow for faster assessment of common sleep conditions and disorders, and provide clinical knowledge to the individual, the physician, and if required insurance companies, as to those persons who need more immediate attention or treatment for their sleep condition.
