Figure 2

Spearman correlation of 0.94 () was detected between scores of original PSQI and shortened survey. Grey lines represent maximal possible global score in original PSQI (21) and “shortPSQI” (15). Blue vertical line represents cut-off 5 on PSQI; all who had more than 5 were assigned as poor sleepers. Red horizontal line represents cut-off point of 4 in shortPSQI; all students above the line were defined as poor sleepers.
