Abstract
MANSILLA, Fernando. The chronic fatigue syndrome: From the susceptibility model to the hypothesis of the stress chain in the job area. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2003, n.86, pp.19-30. ISSN 2340-2733.
The susceptibility model has to be with the mixture of different elements: the biological susceptibility, the susceptibility to mobbing, the susceptibility to burn-out, the susceptibility to job stress and the protection factors such as: the social support, the positive self-concept, the internal locus of control, the high level of self-esteem and the self-efficacy feeling. The hypothesis of stress chain in the job area afirms that the persistance of job stress is acumulative. The mobbing, the burn-out syndrome, the job stress provoke different kinds of fatigue. If the stress factors, which lead to these problems, waist too much time, the fatigue may come to be what is called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
