缺乏实验室检查和明确的标准，以确定同质（亚）组患者的原因不明的疲劳，并评估这些患者的临床状态和残疾，需要进一步的评估方法。在本研究中，多维度的方法来评估慢性疲劳综合征（CFS）。298例CFS患者完成了一组邮寄问卷，评估CFS的行为，情感，社会和认知方面。通过统计分析，确定了CFS的9个相对独立的维度，沿着这些维度可以指导CFS的评估和CFS的研究。这些维度被命名为：心理健康、日常生活中的功能障碍、睡眠障碍、避免身体活动、神经心理障碍、与投诉相关的因果归因、社会功能、自我效能预期和个人情况的主观体验。对这些方面的研究样本的描述。
The absence of laboratory tests and clear criteria to identify homogeneous (sub)groups in patients presenting with unexplained fatigue, and to assess clinical status and disability in these patients, calls for further assessment methods. In the present study, a multi-dimensional approach to the assessment of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is evaluated. Two-hundred and ninety-eight patients with CFS completed a set of postal questionnaires that assessed the behavioural, emotional, social, and cognitive aspects of CFS. By means of statistical analyses nine relatively independent dimensions of CFS were identified along which CFS-assessment and CFS-research can be directed. These dimensions were named: psychological well-being, functional impairment in daily life, sleep disturbances, avoidance of physical activity, neuropsychological impairment, causal attributions related to the complaints, social functioning, self-efficacy expectations, and subjective experience of the personal situation. A description of the study sample on these dimensions is presented.
