Physiological correlates of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale reveal different dimensions of daytime sleepiness. [PDF]
Sleep Adv, 2021 AbstractThe Epworth Sleepiness Scale is commonly used to examine self-reported daytime sleepiness in clinical populations; the physiologic correlates of this scale, however, are not well understood. Furthermore, how well this scale correlates with parallel objective and self-reported concepts of daytime sleepiness is not well described.

Modification of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale in Central China [PDF]
Quality of Life Research, 2011 The well-known excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) assessment, Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), is not consistently qualified for patients with diverse living habits. This study is aimed to build a modified ESS (mESS) and then to verify its feasibility in the assessment of EDS for patients with suspected sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in central China ...

Italian version of the Epworth sleepiness scale: external validity
Neurological Sciences, 2003 We assessed the validity of an Italian language version of the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS). The translated ESS was compared to the multiple sleep latency test (MSLT), considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS).
