Psychometric Assessment for Tinnitus, Hyperacusis, Misophonia and Other Psychological Comorbidity

 

“This talk focuses on reviewing the clinical application of a wide range of self-report questionnaires for assessment of severity of symptoms and the disability related to tinnitus, hyperacusis and misophonia. In addition, by the end of this session, participants should be able to select and apply a wide range of specialist self-report tools for screening of underlying panic disorder, phobia, obsessive compulsive disorder, generalised anxiety, suicidal ideations, health anxiety, insomnia and depression and make appropriate onward referral to mental health services for further investigations and treatment.”
