Abstract:
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) was found to be effective with a diverse range of clinical conditions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ACT-based treatment for individuals with tinnitus. Meta-analysis of the scientific literature of Medline via PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and Google Scholar. The meta-analysis included 3 studies. The pooled mean difference in the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) score was 17.67 points lower [95% CI (- 23.50) to (- 11.84)] for the intervention arm compared to the non-treated control arm. The significant clinical reduction in the THI score indicates that ACT is an effective treatment for tinnitus.
