Notice that, according to this, school attendance data will be obtained "via child self-completed questionnaires". So, once again not using...
It seems the problem is that the phrase 'post exertional malaise' gets interpreted using plain English rather than being flagged as a medical term...
Strange is an understatement. But unfortunately par for the course.
From the Sharpe et al 1992 paper referenced above: "Follow up of patients presenting with fatigue to an infectious diseases clinic" Michael...
I'd love to know the earlist reference to this too. Was there ever a study that showed correlation which the BPS brigade then used to claim...

I've always been fascinated by the 12 note equal tempered system. The frequencies come from f = f0 x 2^(n/12) Where f0 is the base frequency and...
Yes, I wondered if that is what is going on in the post quoted above: since there was never a CBT + APT arm of PACE. Unless she took up the...
Thanks for the video @Graham. I wondered if it would have been clearer if you had overlaid a graphic of a normal distribution at 80 +/- 20 over...
