Abstract
Twenty patients with severe tinnitus who had undergone behavioural treatment, including applied relaxation and perceptual restructuring, were re-assessed 9 months after completion of treatment. Among the self-recorded variables, tinnitus loudness, discomfort from tinnitus, depression, and irritation, discomfort from tinnitus was the only variable which was still significantly reduced. As part of the 9-month follow-up assessment, the patients' recall of the loudness and discomfort from their tinnitus was studied. Correlations between original recordings and recall data were low.Keywords
