UNASSIGNED: One to three percent of individuals with @entity392 experience significant reduction in quality of life. Factors that contribute to distress include @entity1314 variables, intolerance to loud noises, external locus of control, and pre-existing @entity148 . Characteristics of @entity392 itself, such as perceived loudness, can also cause functional impairment. It is unknown whether different @entity1109 have various effects on either @entity73 , which can reduce quality of life. While audiological tests can determine pitch and loudness of @entity392 , questionnaires also can be easily used to assess subjective characteristics of @entity392 . In this study, 370 @entity1 , recruited via email from a national @entity392 organization, completed online surveys that assessed @entity392 and provided qualitative descriptions of their @entity392 sensation. Self-reports of @entity392 sensation were rated by five independent coders, with excellent agreement. Individuals who reported a @entity1109 were found to experience significantly more functional impairment and avoidant behavior. Future research should utilize more sophisticated approaches to categorize individuals' @entity392 sensation and to examine associated emotional and functional differences. Providers should appropriately refer @entity1 for @entity392 management and empirically-supported therapies aimed at reducing @entity392 related @entity73 .
