Shows convergent validity with other symptom scales such as ESS and Karolinska Sleepiness Scale, [6] prediction of performance after sleep deprivation [4] Discriminative validity: Adequate: Studies do not report AUCs, some mention overlap between sleepiness, physical tiredness, and depression [4] Validity generalization: Good
Sleep disturbances often occur before the onset of psychosis. Sleep deprivation can also produce hallucinations, delusions and depression. [26] A 2019 study investigated the three above-mentioned sleep disturbances in schizophrenia-spectrum (SCZ) and bipolar (BP) disorders in 617 SCZ individuals, 440 BP individuals, and 173 healthy controls (HC).
