Background: The Regensburg Insomnia Scale (RIS) is a new self-rating scale to assess cognitive, emotional and behavioural aspects of psychophysiological insomnia (PI) with only ten items. A specific purpose of the new scale is the evaluation of the outcome of insomnia-specific cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT-I). Methods: Internal consistency of the RIS has been validated in 218 patients with PI. For determining sensitivity and specificity, this sample has been compared to 94 healthy controls. Sensitivity to change and pre-post cross-validation with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) has been tested in a separate sample of 38 patients with PI undergoing CBT-I. Results: RIS distinguishes well between controls and patients with PI. Internal consistency was within a good range (Cronbach alpha = .890). RIS was sensitive for detecting improvements after CBT-I in sleep parameters and target symptoms such as sleep-related thinking. Conclusion: The RIS is a valid and feasible instrument for assessing psychological PI-symptoms and sleep parameters.
