A positive significant relationship (p<0,01) is found between a psychiatric judgement on autonomic nervous system complaints and a “blind” neurological judgement on paroxysmal EEG phenomena. Classification: Somatization Disorder (DSM-III-R; IV 300.81). Diagnoses: nervous functional complaints, hyperventilation syndrome, Da Costa's disease (irritable heart syndrome, neurocirculatory asthenia) and irritable bowel syndrome. A positive significant relationship (p<0,001) is found between a diagnosis of “Da Costa's disease” and a “blind” neurological judgement on PEF. A positive significant relationship (p<0,001) is found between a psychiatric judgement on neurasthenia (atypical headache and atypical tiredness) classified as dysthymia DSM-IH-R 300.40 and a neurological judgement on localised (cortical) abnormalities by “blind” EEG evaluation. No medication in the last half year. Logistic regression analysis (n=116) revealed that sex and age are of no importance. No medication in the last half year before EEG registration.
