Abstract

Background: speech comprehension difficulty is a very common complaint of individuals with tinnitus with and without hearing loss. This study was conducted in order to analyze if tinnitus interferes in auditory processing and speech comprehension in individuals with normal hearing levels.

Aim: to asses and compare the auditory behavior of temporal resolution and selective attention of adults with normal hearing levels with and without tinnitus.

Method: 45 individuals, 15 with continuous tinnitus and 30 without tinnitus were selected and assessed by three auditory processing tests: Speech in Noise Test, Dichotic Digits Test and Gaps in Noise. After that, the results of each group were compared by appropriated statistic's tests; one of them was ANOVA.

Results: there were no significant statistical differences between the groups and both ears.

Conclusion: tinnitus did not interfere in the auditory abilities of selective attention and temporal resolution.

耳鸣患者的时间分辨力和选择性注意。

背景:言语理解困难是伴有或不伴有听力损失的耳鸣患者非常常见的主诉。本研究的目的是分析耳鸣是否会干扰听力正常的人的听觉处理和言语理解。目的:评估和比较听力水平正常的成人伴耳鸣和不伴耳鸣的时间分辨和选择性注意的听觉行为。方法:选取45例耳鸣患者，其中持续性耳鸣患者15例，非持续性耳鸣患者30例，通过语音噪声测试、数字二分法测试和噪声间隙测试三种听觉加工测试进行评估。之后，采用相应的统计检验对各组结果进行比较;其中一个是方差分析。结果:两组间及双耳间无显著统计学差异。结论:耳鸣对选择性注意和时间分辨听觉能力无干扰。
