## Study Objectives Persistent insomnia disorder (pID) is linked to neurocognitive decline and increased risk of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) in later life. However, research in this field often utilizes self-reported sleep quality data - which may be biased by sleep misperception - or uses extensive neurocognitive test batteries - which are often not feasible in clinical settings. This study therefore aims to assess whether a simple screening tool could uncover a specific pattern of cognitive changes in pID patients, and whether these relate to objective aspect(s) of sleep quality. ## Methods Neurocognitive performance (Montreal Cognitive Assessment; MoCA), anxiety/depression severity, and subjective sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index: PSQI; Insomnia Severity Index: ISI) data were collected from 22 middle-aged pID patients and 22 good-sleepers. Patients underwent overnight polysomnography. ## Results Compared to good-sleepers, patients had lower overall cognitive performance (average: 24.6 versus 26.3 points, Mann–Whitney __U__ = 136.5, __p__ = <0.006), with deficits in clock drawing and verbal abstraction. In patients, poorer overall cognitive performance correlated with r
