Résumé : | 'The objective of the present study was to validate the Short Version of French Sleepiness Scale for Adolescents (FSSA) with eight items (FSSA8). Methods:A total of 384 adolescents, aged between 12 and 18 years, completed the FSSA8. These included 269 nonclinical adolescents and 115 adolescents admitted for overnight polysomnography and Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) because of suspected hypersomnia (85 patients with narcolepsy and 30 with other sleep disorders). Item response theory (IRT) assumptions were tested and psychometric properties were analysed. Matching on sex ratio and age was conducted to estimate concurrent criterion, diagnostic validity and cut-offs. Results:IRT assumptions were validated confirming the one-dimensionality of the FSSA8. The latent continuum sleepiness for which the scale and its items are reliable encompassed most of the clinical subjects. FSSA8 is weakly correlated with MSLT. Distribution of scores for the nonclinical group and the clinical group differed significantly; the FSSA8 had very good screening validity in sleep disorders. The cut-off was seven points. Conclusion:The FSSA8 appeared to be more reliable for patients than for nonclinical participants and to be a good tool for screening excessive daytime sleepiness in sleep disorders.
