Introduction

Sleep health is “a multidimensional pattern of sleep-wakefulness, adapted to individual, social, and environmental demands, that promotes physical and mental well-being”. The RU-SATED is a short practical self-reported symptom scale that is a reliable valid tool for the rapid evaluation of sleep health. This study sought to examine the psychometric validity of the French version.

Methods

We conducted an observational cross-sectional study. All professionals working in Bordeaux University Hospital were asked to answer an internet-based questionnaire assessing sleep, mental and physical health outcomes. Sleep health was measured using the French RU-SATED scale obtained by a rigorous reverse translation process. Psychometric validity included factor structure, internal structural validity, concurrent validity and external validity of the measure, with sleep, mental and physical health outcomes.

Results

A total of 1,562 participants were included with 80.5% of women and a mean age of 40.0 (±11.2). Sleep health was within the average range (M = 8.2, SD = 2.4) on the RU-SATED. Confirmatory factor analyses showed acceptable model fit measures. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.57 and ranged from 0.46 to 0.58 when removing each item. The correlation between items with the overall corrected scores ranged from 0.19 to 0.43. The “Efficiency” item showed poor psychometric properties. Most items were highly correlated with their appropriate sleep outcome. All items showed a strong association with positive mental and physical health outcomes.

Discussion

The French RU-SATED scale is a reliable valid tool for measuring sleep health in adults. Nevertheless, future studies should better evaluate the reliability and validity of the “Efficiency” item. It is also important to explore how the RU-SATED can be used to evaluate the impact of sleep hygiene strategies in promoting public health in accordance with models of sleep behavior change.

面向全球睡眠健康问题的多语言诊断工具：法国 RU-SATED 验证

介绍

睡眠健康是“一种多维的睡眠-觉醒模式，适应个人、社会和环境需求，促进身心健康”。RU-SATED 是一种简短实用的自我报告症状量表，是快速评估睡眠健康的可靠有效工具。本研究旨在检验法语版本的心理测量效度。

方法

我们进行了一项观察性横断面研究。所有在波尔多大学医院工作的专业人员都被要求回答一份基于互联网的问卷，评估睡眠、心理和身体健康状况。睡眠健康是使用通过严格的反向翻译过程获得的法语 RU-SATED 量表来衡量的。心理测量效度包括测量的因素结构、内部结构效度、同时效度和外部效度，以及睡眠、心理和身体健康结果。

结果

共有 1,562 名参与者被纳入，其中女性占 80.5%，平均年龄为 40.0 (±11.2)。睡眠健康在 RU-SATED 的平均范围内（M = 8.2，SD = 2.4）。验证性因素分析显示可接受的模型拟合度量。Cronbach's alpha 系数为 0.57，去除每个项目时的范围为 0.46 至 0.58。项目与整体校正分数之间的相关性范围为 0.19 至 0.43。“效率”项目表现出较差的心理测量特性。大多数项目与其适当的睡眠结果高度相关。所有项目都显示出与积极的心理和身体健康结果密切相关。

讨论

法国 RU-SATED 量表是衡量成人睡眠健康的可靠有效工具。尽管如此，未来的研究应该更好地评估“效率”项目的信度和效度。根据睡眠行为变化模型，探索如何使用 RU-SATED 评估睡眠卫生策略在促进公共卫生方面的影响也很重要。
