A brief, five-item scale evaluating insomnia symptoms, the WHIIRS was developed as part of a larger study investigating a range of health issues affecting postmenopausal women. The scale requires individuals to rate the quality of their sleep and the frequency with which they experience certain sleep problems, providing a total score that may be useful for both research and clinical purposes.
