The questionnaire is a Likert-type questionnaire (0 = Never/Never feel like this, 1 = Rarely feel like this, 2 = Sometimes or sometimes feel like this, 3 = Often feel like this, 4 = Always or most of the time feel like this) that evaluates individual-specific altered perception. The questionnaire asks individuals 9 questions such as how they perceive their neck in relation to their body, how they perceive their body position. The total score varies between 0-36. A high score indicates a poor prognosis.

These questions are to determine sleep duration, sleep latency, and the frequency and severity of specific sleep-related problems; 18 items were grouped as 7 component scores. The total score ranges from 0 to 21. A high total score indicates poor sleep quality. The scale does not indicate the presence of sleep disorders or the prevalence of sleep disorders.
