Aural Rehabilitation Exam 1 Practice Test

A TFI score of 32-53 indicates what level?

Not a problem Small problem Moderate problem Big problem

Correct Answer:

Moderate problem

Explanation:

Interpreting how TFI scores map to the level of tinnitus impact on daily life. The TFI measures how much tinnitus interferes with activities, sleep, concentration, mood, and overall quality of life—the higher the score, the greater the disruption. A score in the low-to-mid range, like 32 to 53, indicates a moderate level of impact: tinnitus is noticeable and affecting multiple areas of daily functioning, but it’s not described as a severe or “big” problem. In practical terms, this level often leads to discussing management options (such as sound therapy, coping strategies, or counseling) and monitoring changes over time. Scores lower than this would suggest a small or minimal impact, while scores higher would point toward a bigger problem.
