Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify possible contributing factors influencing on symptoms of stress by patients with chronic fatigue. Data were collected by questionnaires from 252 patients with chronic fatigue at two general hospitals and eight communities in Seoul. Major results revealed that: (1) the level of symptoms of stress experienced by patients with chronic fatigue was higher than that of general midwife population and patients with chronic diseases; (2) the level of symptoms of stress was significantly associated with the level of fatigue (r = .34, p = .00), perceived stress (r = .25, p = .00), and fatigue regulating behaviors (r = .16, p = .00); (3) the level of symptoms of stress was negatively associated with the level of social support (r = -.60, p = .00) and self-efficacy (r = -.18, p = .00); (4) perceived stress, level of fatigue, and fatigue regulating behaviors were shown to be significant predictors on the symptoms of stress. The results were discussed and implications for future studies are suggested.
