This cross-sectional study aimed to measure the discrepancy between actual and perceived IQ in a sample of adolescents with CFS compared to healthy controls. We hypothesized that adolescents with CFS and their parent would have higher expectations of the adolescent's intellectual ability than healthy adolescents and their parent.
The sample was 28 CFS patients and 29 healthy controls aged 11-19 years and the parent of each participant. IQ was assessed using the AH4 group test of general intelligence and a self-rating scale which measured perceived IQ.
Parents' perceptions of their children's IQ were significantly higher for individuals with CFS than healthy controls.
High expectations may need to be addressed within the context of treatment.
这项横断面研究旨在测量慢性疲劳综合征青少年样本与健康对照组相比实际智商和感知智商之间的差异。我们假设患有慢性疲劳综合征的青少年及其父母对青少年智力能力的期望会高于健康青少年及其父母。
样本包括28名年龄在11至19岁的慢性疲劳综合征患者、29名健康对照者以及每位参与者的父母。使用AH4一般智力分组测试和测量感知智商的自评量表来评估智商。
慢性疲劳综合征患者的父母对其子女智商的认知显著高于健康对照组。
在治疗过程中可能需要关注过高的期望。
