Sleep quality is a complex phenomenon with quantitative and subjective aspects that vary during adolescence. The prevalence of sleep disorders is not known in Tunisia due to the lack of validated tools.
To translate and validate the questionnaire Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) into Tunisian Arabic in middle school students.
We translated the PSQI into Tunisian Arabic based on the translation back-translation method. We conducted a cross-sectional study on a sample of 560 adolescents. Exploratory factor analysis was performed to study construct validity. To test reliability, the global internal consistency of the scale was computed.
The construct validity was verified by factor analysis, proving that a single factor explained 30.3% of the overall variance. This model produced a good factor load for all the components. The analysis of the reliability showed an acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha=0.6).
The Arabic Tunisian version of the PSQI is a psychometrically valid measure. The PSQI could be useful for the detection and evaluation of symptoms of sleep disorders, as well as for further studies and researches about associated factors with poor sleep quality in adolescent and youth.
睡眠质量是一个复杂的现象，在青春期其数量和主观方面会有所不同。由于缺乏经过验证的工具，突尼斯睡眠障碍的患病率尚不清楚。
将匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）问卷翻译成突尼斯阿拉伯语并在中学生中进行验证。
我们基于翻译-回译方法将PSQI翻译成突尼斯阿拉伯语。我们对560名青少年样本进行了横断面研究。进行探索性因素分析以研究结构效度。为了测试信度，计算了量表的整体内部一致性。
通过因素分析验证了结构效度，证明单一因素解释了总方差的30.3%。该模型对所有成分产生了良好的因素负荷。信度分析显示内部一致性可接受（克朗巴哈α系数=0.6）。
突尼斯阿拉伯语版的PSQI是一种心理测量学上有效的测量工具。PSQI可用于检测和评估睡眠障碍症状，以及用于进一步研究青少年和青年睡眠质量差的相关因素。
