Abstract
Nine tinnitus sufferers kept daily diaries of their tinnitus experiences for up to three months. Levels of the loudest and quietest tinnitus and tinnitus annoyance were moderately highly correlated with each other and weakly correlated with the degree of sleep disturbance. Fluctuations in tinnitus sensation were frequent and associated with higher perceived levels and annoyance. Results were complicated by individual differences in tinnitus and lifestyle.Keywords
