Insomnia catastrophising thinking consists of overestimating the sleep disturbance and the related daytime impairment. The present study aimed to develop and assess the psychometric properties of the Italian adaptation of the Insomnia Catastrophising Scale (ICS) in a sample of 434 university students. The ICS is a self-report tool assessing catastrophic thoughts related to nighttime (ICS-N) and daytime symptoms of insomnia (ICS-D).

Which type of work do Italians perform? In this contribution, we aim at detecting the anatomy of the
Italian occupational structure by taking stock of a micro-level dataset registering the task content, the
execution of procedures, the knowledge embedded in the work itself, called ICP (Indagine
Campionaria sulle Professioni), the latter being comparable to the U.S. O*NET dataset. We perform
an extensive empirical investigation moving from the micro to the macro level of aggregation. Our
