, Sleep efficiency (definition) - ANS - A ratio of the amount of time spent sleeping compared
to the amount of time spent in bed (time sleeping / time in bed)
- Sleep efficiency decreases with age
- In older adults, sleep efficiency drops below 0.8 to as low as 0.4 and people spend less time in
later stages of sleep

Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) - ANS - A self-rated questionnaire that assesses
sleep quality and disturbances over 1-month
- Seven "component" scores generated:
(1) subjective sleep quality
(2) sleep latency
(3) sleep duration
(4) habitual sleep efficiency
(5) sleep disturbances
(6) use of sleeping medication, and
(7) daytime dysfunction
- Sum the seven components yields one global score

sleepiness*, by administration of short questionnaire
- Subjects rate their probability of falling asleep on a scale of increasing probability from 0 to 3
for eight different situations
