Introduction: Psychosomatic disorders are debilitating and widespread disorders. These disorders, like chronic fatigue syndrome, are debilitating and cause physical and mental breakdown. Among these, nurses in the healthcare field are among the people who are more at risk of chronic fatigue syndrome than others. This syndrome has symptoms similar to depression, it does not recover easily and it overshadows the quality of a person's life. Methods: The current research method was descriptive and correlational and retrospective. The statistical method was structural equation method. Sampling was non-random and available, and finally, among 1000 nurses, 291 nurses were eligible based on the entry criteria and were selected. In this research, tools such as the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire (1989), Maslesh and Jackson's (1981) emotional exhaustion, Salkoskis and Varik's (2001) health anxiety, Granfsky et al.'s cognitive regulation of emotion (2001) and Smets' multidimensional measurement of fatigue ( 1996) was used. All the tools mentioned had validity and validity confirmed in domestic and foreign researches. Results: The research Results showed that sleep quality, health anxiety, and cognitive regulation of emotions cannot predict emotional exhaustion directly and only if cognitive fatigue plays a mediating role. to have Finally, the indirect paths of the model were significant, and this showed that cognitive fatigue is a mediator (P<0.05). Conclusion: According to the Results of the research, to reduce emotional exhaustion in the nursing profession, attention should be paid to cognitive fatigue. Cognitive fatigue is a state of helplessness that makes a person unable to make decisions in important and different life situations. Improvement of cognitive fatigue can ultimately reduce the symptoms of emotional exhaustion and increase sleep quality, reduce health anxiety and use positive emotion cognitive regulation strategies in nurses.
