INTRODUCTION
The present study investigated the relationship between the perceived tinnitus severity, depressive and anxiety symptoms in individuals with tinnitus. An attempt was also made to see if any relationship exists between the perceived tinnitus severity and the age, gender or hearing status of the sufferer.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Fifty individuals (31 males, 19 females) with tinnitus (age range 19 to 60 years) were enrolled in the study. After the routine pure tone audiometry, each participant completed the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and the Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self Report-30.
RESULTS
A significant correlation (r = 0.585, p pp < 0.01 respectively). Furthermore, age, gender and hearing status did not significantly influence the perceived severity of tinnitus.
CONCLUSION
The results support the view that there is a strong relation between tinnitus and anxiety-depressive symptoms. Further, perceived severity of tinnitus is not influenced by age, gender and hearing status of the individual.
引言
本研究调查了耳鸣患者感知到的耳鸣严重程度与抑郁和焦虑症状之间的关系。同时还试图了解感知到的耳鸣严重程度与患者的年龄、性别或听力状况之间是否存在任何关系。
材料与方法
五十名耳鸣患者（31名男性，19名女性）（年龄范围为19至60岁）参与了该研究。在进行常规纯音听力测定后，每位参与者完成了耳鸣障碍量表、状态-特质焦虑量表和抑郁症状自评量表-30。
结果
存在显著相关性（r = 0.585，p分别<0.01）。此外，年龄、性别和听力状况对感知到的耳鸣严重程度没有显著影响。
结论
结果支持耳鸣与焦虑-抑郁症状之间存在密切关系的观点。此外，个体的年龄、性别和听力状况不会影响感知到的耳鸣严重程度。
