Catastrophizing and fear of tinnitus predict quality of life in patients with chronic tinnitus.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:A fundamental problem in the study of human spoken word recognition concerns the structural relations among the sound patterns of words in memory and the effects these relations have on spoken word recognition. In the present investigation, computational and experimental methods were employed to address a num...
