The data supported both research hypotheses. Patients with TMJ pain syndrome scored higher (p = .009) than the control subjects o the SRRS. As the number of symptoms increased, there was a tendency for scores on the SRRS to increase for all subjects (r = 0.58, p less than or equal to .05). The SRRS may be useful in evaluation and treatment planning of patients with these symptoms. Further research utilizing a larger sample size is necessary to determine the consistency of rating scores of patients versus nonpatients. Continued research is needed involving TMJ dysfunction to improve the multidisciplinary approach to and treatment of patients with problems in this area.
数据支持了两个研究假设。颞下颌关节疼痛综合征患者在社会再适应评定量表（SRRS）上的得分高于对照组（p = .009）。随着症状数量的增加，所有受试者在SRRS上的得分都有上升趋势（r = 0.58，p≤.05）。SRRS在评估和治疗有这些症状的患者时可能有用。需要进行进一步研究，采用更大的样本量来确定患者与非患者评分的一致性。还需要对颞下颌关节功能障碍进行持续研究，以改进对该领域有问题患者的多学科治疗方法。
