“…In our cohort, the PSQI assessment indicated a significant association between pain, FM and poor sleep quality. Sleep quality may also influence depression, anxiety and overall psychopathological impairments; anxiety may be involved in daytime sleepiness, induced by an increased activation of the autonomic system during the morning (Graffelman et al., ).…”

Non-restorative sleep is a hallmark symptom of chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis. However, little is known about self-reported sleep disturbances in these subjects. This study aimed to assess the self-reported sleep quality and its impact on quality of life in a Spanish community-based chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis cohort. A prospective cross-sectional cohort study was conducted in 1,455 Spanish chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis patients. Sleep quality, fatigue, pain, functional capacity impairment, psychopathological status, anxiety/depression and health-related quality of life were assessed using validated subjective measures. The frequencies of muscular, cognitive, neurological, autonomic and immunological symptom clusters were above 80%. High scores were recorded for pain, fatigue, psychopathological status, anxiety/depression, and low scores for functional capacity and quality of life, all of which correlated significantly (all p < 0.01) with quality of sleep as measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Multivariate regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age and gender, the pain intensity (odds ratio, 1.11; p <0.05), psychopathological status (odds ratio, 1.85; p < 0.001), fibromyalgia (odds ratio, 1.39; p < 0.05), severe autonomic dysfunction (odds ratio, 1.72; p < 0.05), poor functional capacity (odds ratio, 0.98; p < 0.05) and quality of life (odds ratio, 0.96; both p < 0.001) were significantly associated with poor sleep quality. These findings suggest that this large chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis sample presents poor sleep quality, as assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and that this poor sleep quality is associated with many aspects of quality of life.

“…Regardless, CFS is viewed as a cluster of symptoms combined with persistent fatigue that interferes with day‐to‐day functioning and can have a negative impact on psychological adjustment. For example, researchers have noted that there is a relatively high prevalence of depressive symptoms among people with CFS (e.g., Graffelman, Neven, Nagelkerken, Petri, & Springer, 2002; Ray, 1991). Currently, there is no reliable method to determine incidence or prevalence rates of CFS, but the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, 2002) estimates that as many as a half million people in the United States have a CFS‐like condition.…”

Causal attributions control, beliefs, and helpful and unhelpful support attempts were examined among people experiencing chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and their close others. Results revealed that 84% of respondents with CFS believed that their illness was due, at least in part, to physical or external causes, whereas 47% mentioned internal/psychological causes. Reports of internal causal attributions for CFS were positively correlated with indicators of poor psychological adjustment among those with CFS. Having an external locus of control (i.e., to powerful others) was also associated with poorer psychological adjustment among respondents with CFS. Close others' causal attributions to internal factors were related to frequency of self-reported unhelpful support attempts and to reports of depression and anxiety those respondents with CFS.Social and health psychologists have become increasingly interested in the role of social cognition in coping with chronic illness. Two constructs integral to coping are causal attribution and beliefs about control (e.g.,

Jelen tanulmányban bemutatjuk a Groningen Alvásminôség Skála (Groningen Sleep Quality Scale) magyar verziójának 201 személy adatain nyugvó pszichometriai jellemzôit. A skálát két független mintán -123 egyetemista és 78 pszichiátriai beteg által kitöltött kérdô-ív alapján -vizsgáltuk meg. A Groningen Alvásminôség Skála belsô reliabilitása mindkét minta esetében kifejezetten jónak bizonyult, a Cronbach alfa értéke mindkét esetben meghaladta a 0,85-ös értéket. A skála validitás vizsgálatát 4 különbözô kérdôív -a WHO jóllét kérdôív rövidített változata (WBI-5), a Beck Depresszió Kérdôív rövidített változata (BDI-R), a Szubjektív Testi Tünet Skála (PHQ-15) és a Vonásszorongás kérdôív (STAI-T) segítségé-vel végeztük el. A négy kérdôív adatai és az egyes kérdôívek alvásminôségre vonatkozó tételei mindkét mintán szignifikáns és közepesen erôs korrelációt mutattak a Groningen Alvásminôség Skálán nyert eredményekkel. A skála bináris logisztikus regresszió analízi-se alapján a WHO-5, a PHQ-15 és (tendenciaszinten) a BDI-R szignifikáns hatása a teljes variancia egynegyedét magyarázta meg. Az eredmények alapján a Groningen Alvásmi-nôség Skála magyar verziója kifejezetten jó pszichometriai jellemzôkkel bír, ezért úgy véljük, hogy a skála értékesen bôvítheti a szubjektív alvásminôséget vizsgáló mérôeszkö-zök sorát.Kulcsszavak: Groningen Alvásminôség Skála, inszomnia, szubjektív alvásminôség Az insomniát, azaz az alváselégtelenséget a DSM-IV-TR (American Psychiatric Association 2000) az elalvási és/vagy átalvási képesség zavaraként, vagy nem pihentetô ("nonrestoratív") alvásként határozza meg, amely * Levelezô szerzô: Bárdos György, ELTE Élettani és Neurobiológiai Tanszék,
