Method involved selection of various questions for the development of \Tinnitus Reaction Index" after reviewing various earlier questionnaire and the problems frequently faced by the individuals with tinnitus observed during case history. Initially 34 questions were included related to functional, emotional, and catastrophic reactions of the patient with tinnitus. It also had a new domain named \predictor indicator" which suggests about uctuations in the tinnitus/ variations in the level of tinnitus due to certain factors. After a pilot study on 15 individuals with tinnitus, the number of questions were ltered down to 20 in order to minimize the ambiguity and redundancy of the questionnaire. Second part of the study involved administering the questionnaire in 100 native Marathi speakers' with complaint tinnitus. Test- retest reliability and split half reliability was found to be 0.834 and 0.742 respectively. Similarly validity was also found to be high (r = 0.84). Thus the developed tool TRI-Marathi is a reliable and valid subjective measure to assess the impact of tinnitus in Marathi speaking individuals and categorize the severity of their tinnitus into dierent degrees. | ||
