The Epworth Sleepiness ScaleThe Epworth Sleepiness Scale
How likely are you to doze off or fall asleep in the following situations, in contrast to just feeling tired?
This refers to your usual way of life in recent times.
Even if you have not done some of these things recently, try to work out how theywould have affected you.
Use the following scale to choose the most appropriate number for each situation:
0 = would never doze
1 = slight chance of dozing
2 = moderate chance of dozing
3 = high chance of dozing
It is important that you put a number (0 to 3) in each of the eight boxes.
Situation (0 – 3)
Sitting and reading ...............................................................................
Watching TV .........................................................................................
Sitting, inactive in a public place (eg a theatre or a meeting)................
