This included preparation, forward translation, back translation, committee review, field testing, and finalization.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Setting<\/jats:title>\n Otology and audiology clinics in a tertiary hospital.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n The study involved 100 Hebrew\u2010speaking and 75 Arabic\u2010speaking adults with and without hearing loss and tinnitus complaints. Participants completed the Hebrew and the Arabic THS and Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) questionnaires, and their audiometric data were collected.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n The average participant age was 50.4 years. Section A (complaint about tinnitus) of the THS strongly correlated with THI scores in Hebrew and Arabic (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.83,\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.78,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u2009.0001), while Section B (complaint about hearing) showed only a moderate correlation (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.47,\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.52,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u2009.0001). Section B scores, but not A, showed a low to moderate correlation with audiometry results in both languages (section B and SRT: Hebrew,\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.43,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u2009.0001; Arabic,\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.39,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u2009.0006; section B and high\u2010frequency average: Hebrew,\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.33,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u2009.001; Arabic,\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.3,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u2009.01).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n The Hebrew and Arabic versions of the THS are valid and reliable tools for assessing tinnitus and hearing\u2010related complaints. They effectively distinguish between the two complaints, aiding clinicians in determining appropriate interventions.<\/jats:p>\n
