The self-reported cognitive performance was not strongly associated with the objective cognitive performances on any domains in patients with CFS. Patients with higher fatigue, pain, and depression levels reported greater subjective cognitive difficulties, as well as higher pain related to lower objective working memory function. The CFS patients had problems mainly in the domains of psychomotor speed and attention measured by the objective neuropsychological tests.
