Kappa value 0.83 indicates an agreement between original and “shortPSQI,” based on a cut-off of 5 and 4 in PISQ and “shortPSQI,” respectively; McNemar’s test indicated a lack of agreement or, rather, a lack of symmetry of false negative and false positive proportions. Based on the analyses, all global values greater than 4 in “shortPSQI” total score are detecting poor sleepers.
