==Theory: Biopsychosocial hypothesis == Early intervention studies generally follow the [[biopsychosocial model]] of ME/CFS which is based on theory that symptoms are caused by the physical effects caused by a mixture of behavioral and thinking habits, known as [[illness beliefs]].{{citation needed | date =June 2020}}. For example, a person who is ill reduces their activity, and this causes [[deconditioning]], which the theory claims causes symptoms such as [[myalgia|muscle pain]] or [[sleep dysfunction]]. However the biopsychosocial hypothesis has become extremely controversial, particularly since the re-analysis of the [[PACE trial]] data, and there are [[List of abnormal findings in chronic fatigue syndrome and myalgic encephalomyelitis|increasing findings of physical abnormalities]], most of which cannot be explained by deconditioning or cognitive and behavioral responses to illness, for example immune system markers, and abnormal responses to exercise. {{See also|List of abnormal findings in chronic fatigue syndrome and myalgic encephalomyelitis|||||}}
