What this degree of chronic fatigue measures
This degree of chronic fatigue estimates self-reported chronic fatigue body drain brain fog sleep fail crash day frequency signals patterns across four domains. Twenty-two original frequency items group into body drain, brain fog, sleep fail, crash day. Each item also maps to a fear-of-intimacy stack layer. A second results chart inspired by FOIS-style intimacy avoidance themes from Descutner and Thelen (1991), adapted to this topic. Your chronic fatigue frequency index averages these patterns into a 0 to 100 score where higher numbers mean more endorsed chronic fatigue body drain brain fog sleep fail crash day frequency signals on this screener, not a clinical diagnosis.
