摘要: Objectives. Fibromyalgia (FM) and Chronic Widespread Pain (CWP) are common diseases in primary care and, addition to the pain they cause, fatigue is a major problem. Fatigue regarded as multidimensional concept instruments assessing should therefore cover several different dimensions. The Multidimensional Inventory (MFI-20) measures five dimensions of fatigue. aim study was investigate test-retest reliability convergent construct validity Swedish version MFI-20 female patients with FM or CWP.Methods. To validity, 166 CWP completed Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) measuring global Thirty-six on two occasions, one day apart evaluate reliability.Results. Spearman's correlation coefficient revealed significant association between each fi...
