WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Sleep-Related Behavior Questionnaire (SRBQ) Test

sleep

When individuals report fatigue or sleep disturbance, behavioral strategies used to cope may help clarify maintaining factors. The Sleep-Related Behavior Questionnaire (SRBQ) is a self-report measure designed to assess sleep-related behaviors and coping strategies commonly used in response to tiredness or sleep concerns.

Developed by Harvey and Ree, it includes 32 items and typically takes about 6 minutes to complete. Respondents rate the frequency of specific habits or actions, supporting clinical formulation by identifying patterns that may be helpful, neutral, or potentially counterproductive.

In practice and research settings, the Sleep-Related Behavior Questionnaire (SRBQ) can be used alongside other sleep assessments to complement symptom reports with information about observable routines and behavioral responses, and to inform treatment planning and behavioral intervention targets.
