Abstract :
The current study provides data from two patients with myalgic
encephalomyelitis, who charted several of their symptoms over time. Each
patient charted domains that were relevant to them, and they were
attempting to assess the effects of specific interventions. An AB
operant design was used for both participants. The findings indicate
that by charting symptoms on a regular basis, it is possible to
determine if a particular intervention is helpful and effective. This
methodology is easily available to patients and clinicians so that they
can have a clearer idea of the effectiveness of interventions for
managing some symptoms of ME.
