Daytime Sleepiness Assessment
Assesses your tendency to doze in everyday situations (8 situations)
Do you find yourself dozing off during the day? This assessment, based on the classic Johns (1991) daytime sleepiness framework, takes about 2-3 minutes.
How sleepy are you during the day?
Not all tiredness is the same. Some people are physically exhausted but can stay awake. Others — even after what seems like enough sleep — find themselves nodding off at meetings, in cars, or while watching TV.
This Daytime Sleepiness Assessment measures your general level of daytime sleepiness using the classic situational framework developed by Johns (1991). It asks a simple question: in eight different situations, how likely are you to doze off? Sitting and reading. Watching TV. Sitting in a meeting. In a car stopped for a few minutes in traffic.
Each situation is rated on a 0-3 scale. Higher scores suggest more daytime sleepiness worth investigating. If you're scoring high, it could be anything from not getting enough sleep to sleep apnea — this assessment flags the symptom, not the cause. Use the result for self-understanding, and consult a sleep specialist if daytime sleepiness affects your daily life.
