- • All eight responses are required; do not treat missing answers as zero. Preserve the authorized item wording (including after lunch without alcohol and traffic circumstances). ESS screens subjective sleepiness and does not diagnose sleep apnea. ATS/AASM identify licensing requirements for organizational reproduction; scoring support alone does not grant publication rights.
