Objective: This study aims to design a Concise and Practical Chinese Tinnitus Disorder Scale (CPCTDS), evaluate its psychometric measurement characteristics, help doctors in making diagnoses treatments. Methods: A sample of 482 tinnitus patients completed CPCTDS. The also the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression (CES-D), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Functional Index (TFI). Results: eight items CPCTDS were extracted through exploratory factor analysis, which had strong internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.855). correlations between total scores Disability (TDI; r 0.960, P < 0.05) TFI ( 0.749, indicated good criterion validity. correlation emotional subscale with 0.650, 0.05), CES-D 0.488, BAI =.384, p showed that convergent validity was satisfactory. Conclusions: original version TDI highly reliable valid. finding shows two scales can be reliably used assess severity clinical areas.
