Why is it important?
This is the first formal translation of this questionnaire in Serbian language. This translation could also be used as a starting point in other countries in the region of West Balkans, due to language similarities. To best of our knowledge, psychometric properties of PSQI in the population of commercial drivers have rarely been reported. In our opinion, this paper could shed some light on the subject of usefulness of a standard sleep quality questionnaire in the population of commercial drivers, as well as to provide researchers in the region a properly translated and validated tool for future studies in sleep quality.
