To link outcome measures used in audiological research to the ICF classification and thereby describe audiological research from the ICF perspective.
Through a peer-reviewed or a joint linking procedure, link outcome measures to the ICF classification system using standardized ICF linking rules. Additional linking rules were developed in combination with the established rules to overcome difficulties when connecting audiological data to ICF. Absolute and relative frequencies of ICF categories were reported.
The identified outcome measures from the previous study (Part I) constituted the empirical material.
In total, 285 ICF categories were identified. The most prevalent categories were related to listening, hearing functions, auditory perceptions, emotions and the physical environment, such as noise and hearing aids. Categories related to communication showed lower relative frequencies, as did categories related to the social and attitudinal environment.
Based on the linked outcome measures, communication as a research topic is subordinated to other research topics. The same conclusion can be drawn for research targeting the social and attitudinal environment of adults with HL. Difficulties in the linking procedure were highlighted and discussed, and suggestions for future revisions of the ICF from the audiological perspective were described.
将听力学研究中使用的结果测量指标与国际功能、残疾和健康分类（ICF）相联系，从而从 ICF 的角度描述听力学研究。
通过同行评审或联合联系程序，使用标准化的 ICF 联系规则将结果测量指标与 ICF 分类系统联系起来。为了克服将听力学数据与 ICF 联系起来的困难，结合已建立的规则制定了额外的联系规则。报告了 ICF 类别的绝对和相对频率。
先前研究（第一部分）中确定的结果测量指标构成了实证材料。
共确定了 285 个 ICF 类别。最常见的类别与听力、听觉功能、听觉感知、情绪和物理环境（如噪声和助听器）有关。与沟通相关的类别相对频率较低，与社会和态度环境相关的类别也是如此。
基于联系的结果测量指标，沟通作为一个研究课题从属于其他研究课题。对于针对成人听力损失的社会和态度环境的研究也可以得出同样的结论。联系过程中的困难被突出并进行了讨论，并从听力学角度描述了对 ICF 进行未来修订的建议。
