Characterization of Chronic Fatigue in Polish Men Aged 13–24

Agnieszka Kulik, Monika Dacka

Abstract


Zmęczenie przewlekłe to zmęczenie trwające przez ponad 6 miesięcy, które wpływa na funkcjonowanie psychiczne i fizyczne oraz znacznie zmniejsza aktywność człowieka. Jest częściej diagnozowane u kobiet niż u mężczyzn. W związku z tym pojawia się pytanie o cechy przewlekłego zmęczenia u mężczyzn, związane z wiekiem. Celem badań było określenie nasilenia i obrazu przewlekłego zmęczenia u mężczyzn w Polsce, aby na tej podstawie wskazać różnice związane z wiekiem w obrazie przewlekłego zmęczenia u mężczyzn. Przeanalizowano wyniki 478 mężczyzn w wieku 13–24 lat (M = 17,23 ± 2,63). Do oceny zmęczenia przewlekłego wykorzystano Kwestionariusz skumulowanych objawów zmęczenia Rokuro Kosugo w adaptacji Agnieszki Kulik i Leszka Szewczyka. Zastosowana analiza statystyczna pozwoliła na określenie istotnych różnic. Nie ma różnicy w natężeniu przewlekłego zmęczenia w grupie mężczyzn w zależności od etapu rozwoju (χ2 = 5878). Mężczyźni w wieku 13–15 lat są bardziej przeciążeni psychicznie (H = 6,655; p < 0,05) i mają więcej objawów somatycznych (H = 90,026; p < 0,05) niż pozostali. Czynnikiem ryzyka przewlekłego zmęczenia jest wiek 13–15 lat. W okresie dojrzewania polscy mężczyźni zwykle wykazują niewielkie lub umiarkowane nasilenie chronicznego zmęczenia. Liczne objawy somatyczne i wyraźne przeciążenie psychiczne wystąpiły w grupie osób najmłodszych i najstarszych.
