Adaptation and validity of the Sleep Quality Scale among Chinese drivers
<h4>Purpose</h4> Poor sleep quality is closed related with driving accidents. However, due to the lack of a valid instrument for assessing drivers’ sleep quality, few studies have examined drivers’ sleep quality and its associations with driving behaviours and traffic accidents in China....
