BACKGROUND: Symptomatic @entity2023 reduces quality of life as a result of the symptoms experienced and possibly as a result of @entity73 and cognitive functioning. Few investigations have measured cognitive functions objectively and it remains uncertain whether @entity2023 leads to an objective @entity73 . OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between @entity2023 , cognitive functions and psychological well-being. Differences between subjective and objective @entity73 were evaluated. METHODS: The cognitive functions (working memory, memory retrieval, speed of information processing and flexibility of information processing) and psychological well-being of 26 @entity1 with @entity2023 and 36 healthy controls matched for intelligence, education, age and sex were compared. The influence of education, intelligence, sex and age was considered. RESULTS: Overall, psychological well-being was significantly impaired in the @entity1 group, as shown by higher scores in feelings of insufficiency, complaints of @entity2531 , @entity25 and depressive feelings, whereas cognitive function was not. CONCLUSIONS: @entity2023 was related to significantly @entity73 and to perceived @entity73 . However, no significant objective @entity73 was found. @entity56 @entity1 may temporarily put more effort into sustaining performance, resulting in earlier exhaustion, which is not noticed during assessment but which impairs psychological well-being.
