Abstract

The ease of use of the French version of the Tinnitus Handicap Questionnaire was assessed in a group of 100 unselected individuals with tinnitus, 57 of whom agreed to take part in the survey. In addition to the instructions commonly used with this inventory, participants were invited to make any comments they wished about each item and to give their opinion of the content and presentation of the questionnaire. Nineteen subjects (33.3%) experienced difficulties with assigning a score to at least one item and one particular item was largely responsible for this problem. Increased systematic use of quantitative and qualitative data with this type of questionnaire is advocated.
