Abstract | For a number of years we have been using open-ended questionnaires in the assessment of hearing disability and handicap, tinnitus complaint behaviour together with shortcomings and benefits of various rehabilitative interventions. More recently we have applied this approach to positive experiences reported by adults who have developed a hearing impairment and to the use of silence or social withdrawal as a communication tactic. In addition, we have asked individuals to rate the magnitude of each of their listed disabilities, handicaps, shortcomings, etc., on a scale to provide a qualitative assessment of each of these elements important to the individual. Such a procedure can be repeated after the intervention to measure changes in such estimates. This approach can thus highlight for the therapist, those elements of the patients' problems which are being well or poorly addressed and hence help them to concentrate their effort on the latter. Results obtained using this technique are presented and discussed. |
