Estimation bias and agreement limits between two common self-report methods of habitual sleep duration in epidemiological surveys.

ABSTRACT: Accurate measurement of habitual sleep duration (HSD) is crucial for understanding the relationship between sleep and health. This study aimed to assess the bias and agreement limits between two commonly used short HSD self-report methods, considering sleep quality (SQ) and social jetlag (SJL) as potential predictors of bias. Data from 10,268 participants in the International COVID Sleep Study-II (ICOSS-II) were used. Method-Self and Method-MCTQ were compared. Method-Self involved a single question about average nightly sleep duration (HSD_self), while Method-MCTQ estimated HSD from reported sleep times on workdays (HSD_MCTQwork) and free days (HSD_MCTQfree). Sleep quality was evaluated using a Likert scale and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) to explore its
