Brief Summary

Tinnitus is a prevalent issue for veterans who are proportionally more hearing-impaired than the civilian population. This study will be conducted as three concurrent projects designed to develop an efficient clinical technique to quantify tinnitus perception: (1)Laboratory development of the automated technique for comprehensive tinnitus quantification;(2)Development of a technique to test for tinnitus "malingering"; and (3)Evaluation of the automated technique in the clinical environment.
